prob just nuisance algea thats feeding on the PO4 and NO3s....
I have to clean my glass everyday too. And my sand is always brown...
I ordered mangroves off Ebay , 25 for $22 delivered, and hope that helps me out. I also have a 29g tank Im making into a sump/fuge, as soon as I can get some plexiglass to make the baffles.
More clean up crew maybe??
good luck
Scoffer | I've been searching for Mangroves, can you give me the person or store you got that from on ebay..... I would like to put some of that in my fuge too. I will get that test kit tomorrow. Seems like I started getting this algae after I stopped using PurpleUp. Thanks for the advice. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)
