news I only recently got rid of the blue green algae in my aquarium, after a year of it growing inch's in size every day. I tried blacking the aquarium out five or six times. each time the blue green algae disappeared after three or four days, but a week or two later it always returned. I put that down to not doing them for long enough but I even tried a six day blackout, and a four day blackout followed by a three day blackout, two days later. and I wrapped my tank up in tin foil, towels, sleeping bags, and all sorts to keep the light out. I finally got rid of it a month ago by using Maracyn. it seems to be gone for good this time. from what I can tell from my experiences with blue green algae it doesn't matter what the water parameters it will still have enough nutrients to be able to grow. it seems to be more to do with bad luck than anything else, if you get it in your tank. Well the blackout worked for me!!!!!!!!!! You must have that same tenacious new species of Cyano that Eric has... :-) -- **So long, and thanks for all the fish!** |
