Hello,
I have a Fluval 250L tank with 307 cannister filter. The tank has 5 otos, 20 neon tetra, 2 pearl guarmis, 2 Kulhi loaches and 12 glowlight rasbora. I have had the tank over a year.
I have been having algae and diatom issues for a long time. The issues are under control with cleaning but they keep coming back. I have brown diatoms on rocks and driftwood and green Algae all over gravel. Any suggestions on how to stop it coming back? Would a Pleco make a big difference? Both types of algae return about 3 days after cleaning. The otos make no difference and tend to stick to the rear and underside of one large piece of driftwood.
Thanks
Chris
