I know I've posted about algae a few times but for some reason I can't access the forum sections to post on those as an update (I use Tapatalk). so I'll start out with my parameters, light cycle, light intensity etc etc and go from there, this might be a long post, but I have to do it because...

So I called my lfs today about what they recommended for green fluff algae/ could be cladophora but cannot find a definitive answer, I asked about Otos she said won't eat it, I asked about flying fox she said they would until they mature then they get lazy and stop then I asked about nerites she...

I have a question, I have what looks to be cladophora algae in my tank (strong strands of hair like algae) it's starting to take over I have to remove it every week, I cant remove it off my more fragile plants like pearl grass or it up roots the plant or breaks it as well as my buceps, I have...

Tank looks okay, bga gone but going to do a second dose of chemiclean just need to wait a week to dose again as I just did a 50% water change and I hate doing water changes before it's time, I'll dose it again in 4 days and do my weekly water change on the 6th day, trimmed rotala about 3" from...

I will no longer be fish keeping as I've lost another fish one which I cannot replace, one that's actually endangered in the wild which I had no idea about, so I only could not save one of God's beautiful creatures let alone one that's on the brink of extinction, I will remove myself from the...

I cleaned my ceramic neo bubble stick with 1 cup distilled white vinegar 3 cups warm water, rinsed very well but I'm sure there was still vinegar still inside it, it's back in the tank and hooked up will this harm my fish if it still had some vinegar inside?

In person it's a lighter shade of orange but in the Pic my Phone makes it look darker than it is, to me it looks like 20-30 but others say 60 and I know it's not that. I also know api is not very good on the nitrate test but haven't ordered the one recommended to me "salifert" Nitrate...
