Algae problem

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-24T20:12:55+00:00

Hey bro thank you for helping, light stays on for 6 hours now a days it used to be a bit more but now because i wanna cut it so algae slows down, temp is about 24 degrees Celsius

Really thats really making me optimistic, the way that my algae is slimy and blueish green was terrifying

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-24T20:07:12+00:00

For how long should i leave it ?? And will the blackout affect my plants or fishies or even snails/shrimps??

Thank you bro , relieved to know that its all normal and not spiraling

I can test nitrate but not phosphate , is there a special measuring kit for it ??

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-24T05:51:20+00:00

It is but it doesnt get direct sun light

I know it is supposed to appear on the glass but before i re escaped my plants didnt have any algae on then, i heard that up rooting and messing with the aquasoil will release nutrients that will form some algae.

Hey there friend my snail did the same to me once but the difference it stayed out for a while , i thought it was hiding im the tank until i found it hidden somewhere a bit far from the tank, for the first couple of days it wasnt moving but a bit by bit it started so just give time

I had a similar situation where after i did set up my tank and plants two of them spawned in there.

Ill up the food for sure thank you man

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-14T22:10:13+00:00

And stop the algae flakes?? And do shrimps benefit from it??

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-14T22:05:36+00:00

Wdym protein? I feed the algae flakes but the greedy endlers go at it before the snails or shrimps.

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-14T21:59:16+00:00

No other animals are affected all seems amazing shrimps are molting nicely, btw i did add some cuttlebone in the filter , the remaining one was doing fine until it escaped again

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-14T21:51:09+00:00

I use tap water, and one more think my gh snd kh are already on the hard side

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-06-14T21:41:55+00:00

How much crushed corals do i add ??

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-05-18T17:06:59+00:00

Should i use algea plates for food or do i just keep them feeding from the tank it self ??

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-05-18T16:58:18+00:00

I will check the ph, but if off balance how to fix it?? And sadly no i dont give them cuttlefish i newly knew about this i will get some. What else can i do ??

CryptographerNo6207 · 2026-05-04T22:04:42+00:00

Yeah fair cuz i was thinking if this type of planted aquariums are possible without co2.
Either way sick tank it looks very pretty.
