Have a 10g planted tank. I have it under a window and everything was fine, but as the seasons changed and the direction of the light changed- bam, lots more algae. And I started seeing the blue-green kind for the first time.
So I covered the sides of the tank until I can move it (today), and have upped my cleaning efforts and got some Algaefix. All the efforts are helping and I'm trying to not use the Algaefix for very long or at all.
Is there something I am missing? I don't have a test kit so I can't tell you all the fancy numbers and letters, but the LFS tested the water and said it was "good" for what that's worth...
Is there anything else I should be doing? Would adding more plants help? (I have plants but they aren't that big yet.
