    Don't mention it! I don't have much experience with thread algae in particular but usually algae is a sign that the tank is overloaded with nutrients (possibly from overfeeding or overdosing of nutrients) so manual removal for the bulk of it with an old toothbrush, reducing light hours and more frequent water changes to reduce the Nitrate levels in the tank could help
