I have a small community tank, 20 gal I had lots of plants, swords,
wisteria
and others. Angle fish, molys, alge eaters.
I've had algae before but never like this. This stuff is thick like a
carpet
and a dark green color. I tried some algae treatment from the store but
it
did not help at all. Any suggestions, I am about ready to rip out all the
plants.

If I'm understanding you correctly, it's growing in green slimy sheets? It's
not *really* and algae, but a cyanobacteria. A dosage of erythromycin
avaiable at most LFS's always works for me.
