Re: Greenwater
how big is your tank and how big is your filter?
i had greenwater in 3 of my tanks. I have tried..
1. commercial solutions - mixed success
2. blackout - no joy, because the affected tanks were exposed to sunlight and in cases that i managed to cover it up, my plants died along with the algae..
3. goldfish - freakish.. today gone, tomorrow comes back. and my shrimps are gone...
4. daphnia - cheapest.. most effective solution.
5. UV.. works for me.i kept it on the whole day for a week. BGA, green water.. gone.
but for daphnia to work, you need to have a medium tank.. 3ft and above. and a filter with very good bio media. or large filter.
I am balding but i am still young!
