I have a 75 gallon with only small fish (1 MM Platy adult and 4 babies, 1 Black Molly, 2 glofish, 3 neon tetras, 2 red velvet swordtails, 1 otocinclus (sp)). I've recently had an algae outbreak on my live plants, deco, rocks, and glass. It's not a super amount, but just enough to drive me crazy!
After doing quite a bit of research, I realized my oto cat wasn't going to cut it in that large of a tank, so I opted for a pleco. The one I just purchased is an Albino Bristlenose, since I didn't want a 24" fish at the bottom of my tank! lol
What is a healthy level of algae in this size tank? My water levels are perfect and I'm not having a problem losing fish but I just don't want it to get out of control.
I'm a fairly new enthusiast (less than a year) and I just want to get it right!
Thanks
