Hi guys
I've had my nano tank (10l / 2.5 gallons) for several months now. It has had its share of algae due to bad CO2 management and filtring: brown algae, staghorn, BGA, thread algae, ...
By increasing the CO2 and nutritients and buying a better filter (200L/H) the thread algae and staghorn have gone away. The BGA needs one more black-out for the final kill. Only the brown algae persists. It only grows on the sand, not on the glass.
Can anyone tell me how I get rid of it? I've already lowered the light somewhat by turning the lamp (cannot use another lamp) so it does not point directly towards the water.
Best regards,
Gilles
