Hi everyone, I just set up a 75 gallon freshwater tank not even 2 weeks ago. We went away for the weekend and came back to a almost completely green tank. I have 6 live plants in my tank as well, and they are also covered. We have a filter system that is for up to 120 gallons, so it should be keeping the tank fairly filtered...I would think...My fish are all community, with a variety of gouramis, 2 bala sharks and a small school of tetras.
How do I keep my tank from getting so much algae so fast, and how do I clean the plants off, they look terrible. I did a 50-70% water change so far in 2 different changes, but I do not want to have to do that every week just to keep it clean. Can anyone help?
