yes nelson I also noticed they are healthier. but do I have to wait until the weekend to remove the algae or can I even without changing the water? but what do you think they are healthier in your opinion because they receive less light what do you think?

Remove algae as much as possible, whenever you have time....you don't need to wait till water change day!
Plants look healthier because they are under a canopy of other plants...plus there are enough light and fertilizers in the water column for decent growth.
