Hi guys,
I have had a 75g freshwater tank for about 2 months now and have developed a bit of a green algae problem. The water has pretty much a green tint now (after a large water change). Before that it was hard to see anything even a few inches away from the glass.
I am currently keeping the lights off 24/7 to try to let it die off and the spotted hypostamus to do its thing and eat some of it.
Is this a good course of action or should I be doing something else?
I currently have:
7 Tiger Barbs
9 Cherry Barbs
4 Panda Corys
1 Rainbow Shark
1 Spotted Hypostamus
4 Red Wag Platies
Thanks in advance.
