So i've had my fish tank for 4-5 months it's cycled and all good, but its just been really green like when i have my led's on it it's nice and bright with barely a hint of greenish yellow algae. But if i shine like my phone light or my room light its really green yellowish, and i have a t5 12000k light for it, but it makes it look green and unattractive. just please help.

where is the algea?
 
just remove it if you dont like it.....there is no harm in a bit of algea as long as its not excessive
 
Ehhh, click on the gyzo pic it pretty much explains it. @mikey1
 
are u talking about the color of the water itself?
 
what do u have in the tank? (ornaments)
 
do u have any wood? it might be causing the color
 
Yes the water is ugly but only in light like that, idk why, i have rocks that have been boiled very well, sand is good, no wood or anything like that, even if i do a water change it looks like this.

you should NEVER boil rocks!!!
 
they can explode and take your head off!! (not joking)
