    Removing dust algae from plants

    For all the FW folks... If you have a dust algae problem on your plants, just reduce the nitrate and phosphate in the water. You can get rid of most of the algae without slowing the plant growth.

    Nutrient Export basics

    What do all algae (and cyano too) need to survive? Nutrients. What are nutrients? Ammonia/ammonium, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate and urea are the major ones. Which ones cause most of the algae in your tank? These same ones. Why can't you just remove these nutrients and eliminate all the algae in...
