hello. I have a 50 gal Fowlr tank. My tank has been up for 6 months now, for about 3 months i have been battling some sort of red/brown algae. Nothing i do helps except cutting down, turning off the lights. Within 3 days of turning off the lights they completely disappear. When i turn on the lights they slowly come back. I currently have Aquaneat lights that are mostly white lights with a few blue lights. Would it be better to get a different light that had less white and more blue/red/green?
I just want the cheapest light i can get because i am not going to have any corals and just need light to highlight the colors to watch the fish. Any suggestions if i change the lights if it will help the algae from coming back and any suggestions on a light to buy? The Aquaneat light cost like $30 and that is why i bought it in the first place.
