Whats your water parameters like?

Is your tank near a window?

How long are your lights on?

Whats your phosphate levels like?

What type of stock you have

Give us something to go on so we can help...

It usually grows when there is an over abundance of light and dissolved nutrients in the water.Do you have your tank lights on a good bit throughout the day or is the tank located near a window?

The Tank is in a conservatory but i always have the blinds closed and sometimes cover the tank in towels to keep light out,

The stock: 4 Channa Stewarti Cf Barca

Temp: 17 - 22 degrees

Lighting: From 4pm - 10pm

Need to check water parameters

How do i check phosphate levels?? sorry if thats a really noob question

Feed 1 cube of bloodworms daily all of which is consumed

Snakeheds dont require regular water changes, i have been advised to do them 4-5 times a year

If you need anymore info let me know :)

Thanks alot
 
Oh lord... Please do a wc. Yes snakeheads are atmospheric breathes but they still need water changes. Im pretty sure that's your problem right there. Put your flame suit on. And just do a water change.
