    Those culturing algae water, I have a method which I use. Perhaps you might want to consider to try this out.

    I put in hydro pellets into the container. It allows the algae to form nicely around the pellet. By far, the only thing that is pearling in a seal container is my one and only algae culture under the sun. The sun is still the best light source. A dosage of Seachem Flourish, Potassium, Iron, Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Trace element allows a strong culture to be form up. Just one week plus I am already harvesting the algaes.

    You're cultivating algae-coated hydro pellets or culturing green water? The green in green water isn't from algae...

    Uncle Ronnie is right about that. Green water, or 'pea-soup', is different from the algae that coats things. The planktonic cells of green water only live in suspension in water. When they die, they turn brown and coat surfaces.

    I cannot tell them apart. Yes, I understand the green water thingy. This one is algae confirmed. But not BBA, not BGA, not hairy, not beard. The fish eats it. Still a fish food.
    Uncle Ron, want sample? Hee Hee...

    Green water consists of a suspension of free-floating algae along with Euglena and whole host of protists. I find this food source to be crucial for the long term growth of fry because of the nutrition that they provide.

    Re: GC-Shop: Share & Learn Sessions

    Hey guys, I do not see green water on top. But this is as green as it gets for the time being.



    So far the sharing session were great! Started this thingy before fish food session so it's a good comparison if this thingy is comparable to the green water that Uncle Ron have described. Would you guys not point out if it is close or not even close to green water that previously discussed? (Yah, that is a CFL in operation in the background, I use it for my room as well)
