This has been taking over my tank. I siphon it out during water changes but it grows back quickly. Is this hair algae or bryopsis?

Looks like hair algae. Some filamentous cyanobacteria can look like this too.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 13 28.9%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 13.3%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 6 13.3%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 11 24.4%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 20.0%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 8 17.8%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.4%

  • I haven’t really considered this before
