I noticed today that i have a type of black fur growing on my plants.
Also known as Black Beard Algae.
I have had this for a while but i thought it was "normal" for some odd reason ¬.¬ is there any way i can kill this algea as i can see it really affecting my plants and not letting them grow at all, i can see new growth without it but in the end it must get affected by it.
Ive researched it and im going to cut out any dosing of nutrients and only put my lights on for maybe 4 hours a day.
Is my 212w t5 bulbs to much excess for my 100 gal and causing this?
I know scrubbing manually will help but the amount of plants and bogwood i have in the tank i dont think it would be possible.
Thank you in advance.
