Acorn Algae - Aquarium Advice

**roka64** · 03-30-2007, 01:24 PM

Ok, I have found that it needs Iron. Does anybody know anything about this algae? My PWCs are not enough to keep it healthy. Right now, it is drooped over and turning brown. I saw this Iron Suppliment, and I will get the test kit, does anyone have some advice/experience?

Do you mean the Kent Marine Iron product (first one)? Your link brings up a whole page of different products.

Yeah, now that I look at the two products, the 2nd one is for planted tanks. So, yes the Kent's Iron.
