Like others have mentioned...there is always a cause. Is this tank near a window, does it get direct sunlight? Excess feeding and lack of water changes (high nitrates) will allow it to flourish. I really wouldn't go out and buy a UV sterilizer.
Algae consuming fish and inverts aren't gonna benefit if its in the water column.

Dude, what are you doing? No wonder you have algae problems!
Diatom isnt really for algae though its for remove fine particles, see if you can pick up the filter pads that remove green water they work like a charm, Also make sure the tank gets no direct sunlight and keep your lights of, maybe add some plants to compete with the algae
I said I don't do water changes? I just did a 40% like two days ago. I always change my water. It's a little clearer now...steverothery;2119890; said:Your previous post says don't do water changes because it kills fish?

It was a little close to a window. I bought the room-darkening shades and tinted the windows w/ 2.5% now. It doesn't get any sunlight now though.krzr3000;2119639; said:
