I Have A 55 Gal. Malawi Cichlids Tank. (Tank established June 2010)
Filters (2) Marineland 280 and Hagen Fluval 405
Substrate: By Sea Carib Made for Cichlids to maintain PH 8.0
This stuff really works See Review in Product Reviews.
Fish QTY. 20 Cichlids
Temp 77.8f Ammonia 0 Nitrites 0 Nitrates 10 PH 8.0
I have noticed that this brown algae is covering the decor an is also found on the rear glass. It's brown and not green. Should I clean this off or let it be.
I know that some species of algae are good for the fish. And that there are some not so good.
If it is to be cleaned how often. I don't want to go through the nitrogen cycle again by removing beneficial bacteria.
Do you all thing I should keep it off the decor ? Looks grungy.
