Hello,
I have a 55 gallon tank, which has quite a few plants. The light is on probably 11 hours a day (I have good lights installed).
Lately I am having an invasion of brown algae in the tank. The stuff is everywhere - occasionally its on glass (before 2 of my plecos eat it) - but it is everywhere on gravel...
Plecos eat it somewhat - but they are not too active...
Can someone recommend me what to do to get rid of the stuff?
Do I Have the lights on for too long?
Please help,
Mitch
