I have had this set up for I say going on two months. The grass don’t seem to be taking root and for the last two to three weeks there has been reddish brown algae. Any kind of advice would greatly be appreciated. Ps. The grass floating around is from me cleaning the filter View attachment 309514View attachment 309515
A bit more info on the tank will help. Fish you have, what kind of lighting, substrate, are you dosing ferts?
Not enough light, algae will grow in window light, plants will not.
If the LED is one that comes in a tank hood, it likely will not be able to grow the grass either.
Ok thank you. Those are bulbs what would I need to put them on ? The tank did not come with the part for the lights because it was second hand
Looks to be a 20ish gallon high tank??
4 x 13w CFL bulbs.
2 x T5-HO bulbs.
2-4 x T8 bulbs.
Finnex 24/7.
Fluval plant 3.0.
Beamswork DA-FSPEC.
Lots of options.
Will this one work? View attachment 309554 and yes it’s a 20gl
