Algae website
Is there a website out there with info and pictures of different kinds
of algae in aquaria and how best to treat each kind? I seem remember something like this, but can't seem to find it. If there's not one, maybe someone here can help me. I've got a kind of green flim algae that covers my hygro, dwarf sag, tank walls, and gravel, but sword seems to be left alone by it. It's got the color of java moss, but grows in a film. Anyone have any ideas? thanks, -- dan |

The second one helped, too. Thank you, sir. So, the next question is, is it worth it to treat my tank with Maracyn to get rid of blue-green algae or should I just continue to manually clean it up? The tank has two Blue Rams in it who are absolutely beautiful and I don't want to risk killing them. -- dan Harry |

The tank has two Blue Rams in it who are absolutely beautiful and I don't want to risk killing them. If this is a planted tank then add some NO3, about an eighth of a teaspoon per 10 gallons. Do a large water change first, removing as much as you can manually. This should sort it out. -- **So long, and thanks for all the fish!** |
