So my poor tank has some hairy algae in it. By some, I mean a lot. Forgive me if there has been a solution posted on here, but it is late and I need to go to bed.
So I think I have hairy algae. It is black though, and looks like strands of hair attached to everything. I trimmed back my plants that had it on there and tried to clean off some of the large rock formations to little avail.
55 gal tank, heated to a hair under 80 F. Small community fish, breeding swordtails, mollies, pleco, chinese algae eaters (that I got with hopes of them snacking on this stuff). Decent lighting (40 watt total I think), big Tetra filter with AC and heater attached.
Thanks for the help
