Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hey gang...
I have some green algae starting up on the back glass of my roughly 2 month old aquarium which I plan on scrubbing off before my next water change. I'm wondering if the algae will spread as there will undoubtedly be some of it left floating around in the tank after I do this. Does algae spread this way? Do I just clean it off, do my water change, about 30%, and carry on? Also does cleaning the algae off with a brush freak out the fish? I know that they do alright with the gravel vacuum so I guessing it won't be an issue. The tank is 98 liters and has 7 white clouds and 3 guppies in it at present.
thanks, as a newbie this forum is a great resource and I really appreciate the time you guys put in to help a guy like me.
