MRSkz Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 I have a slight algea problem in my 3 foot tank. Curently I have 3 B/N's and 1 apple snail in there with the malawi's. I would have thought they would have taken care of any algea but I have been proved wrong. What I want to know is what will eat the algea (just regular green stuff that collects on the glass) keeping it under control. The tank is in front of a window as there is no other place for it and I don't want anything that's going to get huge in the tank. Ideas anyone? Oh yes and I don't want to be spending an arm and a leg on anything either. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsarmina Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Chinese Algae Eaters only if they are young. once they become adults they get slack. my 2 have given up on the glass :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jude Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 the ramshorn snails that I forgot to feed have turned my mossy green deck tank into a sparkling clean one I'd try some of them Cheers Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
