Aquarium Advice FINatic
A friend of mine has been battling this algae for quite some time. The picture is not from his tank, but it looks just like it. The bleach-dip treatment has helped some, but it has managed to come back again. It's a 75 gal tank, and he now has 7 young true siamese algae eaters in the tank, along with the other fish (mainly loaches). He wants it to be a planted tank, but can't seem to keep the algae under control (and not all over the rocks, plants). Is this correctly identified as brush algae? He's tried several methods for removing phosphates (currently at 5 ppm), pH is 7.2, and the tank has been setup for 8 months or so. He has the coralife 260wt fixture on it, and using the cheapo jungle CO2 system.
Any info on how to get rid of this would be greatly appreciated. TIA
