Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I am still cycling a fairly new aquarium with fish and do constant pwc's. However, The substrate and decorations are now pretty much covered in brown algae. Is this harmful to the fish? The water parameters have been fluctuating but I do pwc's to keep ammonia down. Currently the ammonia is not rising / dropping on its own.
I read online that vacuuming the gravel will help clean the brown algae, but I was not sure if I could do this during the cycle? But if that much brown algae is harmful to fish, I may have to vacuum and slow the cycle a little bit.
Let me know what you guys think I should do. Thanks.
