OK, so now I have algae....
I was warned!
Situation:
Light: 1.75wpg
Aq size: 20g high
Filter: Eheim 2213
Inhabitants: 5 Khuli, 6 neon tetras, 6 Harlequin rasboras (all young and small)
Future hopes:
Plants: Java Fern, Anubia (first time plant)
Fish: dwarf gourami, algae eaters - 3 of panda cory?, oto?, other suggestion?
Question:
1. Will the introduction of a Java Fern and an Anubia likely outcompete the algae currently growing on the driftwood and rocks?
2. Are oto and panda corys suitable algae eaters - or algae eaters at all (I'm not sure about panda corys)?
3. How many hours at 1.75wpg of light is too much - i.e. propmotes algae growth?
Is there something else I should know/do?
