Hello everyone! First post... 
I've had this 20g high for about 2 years now. Before you smash me on the angels, i know, i know. I didn't want them in there... Think of this as a good will shelter for them.
I have the 2 angels (hopefully temporarily)
4 Cherry barbs
5 corry cats
The problem is the algae. It's green and grows out long and thick like hair. I have live plants and I just added 2 more when this problem came into my tank again. Before it got so bad I just tore down the whole tank and started new. I really want to avoid that this time... I stay ontop of my 25% weekly water changes and all... What I've been doing is scraping the sides of the tank with a razor and sucking out the algae with the syphon but it just grows back...
Here are some pictures.
Thanks
