Hi all,
I've developed a small algae in my ten gallon planted tank. Its grows on the glass, rocks and plants. Its not a huge issue as I can scrub it off the sides of the glass. The problem is I can't get to every corner and around the heater and filter. It is very unsightly. What can I do to get these little nooks and crannies? I'm 100% sure that I leave the lights on too much. The problem is I only have the one 15 watt incandescent bulb. I am fooling around with the timer so I can see the fish but also keep the algae under control.
