Hey people,
My 120 Gallion aquarium, just got done cycling and durning the cycle algee grew link a son of a gun! Well after the cycle, I got a pleco and he really did clean up alot, it is still bad tho! It is really bad in one secion of the tank on the gravel, and on the sides of the tank.
I clean the aquarium, about ever two weeks, by vac the gravel, cleaning the side of the tank with an algee scrapper. Once I am all done, everything looks good, and then two days later, it is right back to the gravel starting to get green and the side of the aquarium. Now my theory is that, my light fixture is to bright or something, casuse it as two 48" floursant bulbs in it. I don't know what kind of bulbs they are, but it came with the aquarium, when I bought it.
So if that is my problem, is there some kind of light bulb, that I could buy to help put a stop to this?? Or is there something that I could do to help stop this, casue it is really starting to get on my nerves!
Thanks
Andy
