fishing lights green
how do you get rid off blue green algue from my fish tank?
i have a four foot tank with good air, good filtration and the lighting is right but i just carnt get rid of the blue green algue
OK, assuming that the tank was allowed to “age” before the fish were introduced, then your problem more that likely is overfeeding and or insufficient water changes. The fish should only be fed once a day, and only what they will eat in two to three minutes, if food falls to the bottom then it is to much. As for the water changes you should change 10% weekly, preferably with a shiphon tube that you stick into the gravel so that you can remove the mulem (uneaten food and fish excrement) that collects on the bottom. Speaking of the bottom of the tank you should have about two inches of gravel and sand so that the “biological filter” will have enough room to grow important organisms to convert NO2 to NO3. The filter system that you have would idealy turn the tank over twice in one hour, ie: 100gal tank= 200gal per hour pump. I know that this sounds like alot, but it really is not, just remember not to feed to much and change the water, oh yes one last thing if your tank receives natural light then try to move it from the light source as it will give you fits with alage. A healthy tank with strong fish can be left up to two weeks with out food or water changes when you are on vacation! I hope this helps. I have worked in breeding shops for many years.
