filter officially sucks...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Never heard of diatom algae, only Diatom I am aware of the powder u use in a filter. I have found a sponge gets algae off good if it is bugging you. If you can get a dwarf variant of a pleco it wont grow to be a foot long. I have several false zebra plecos that are only the size of a Bic lighter and they are 2 years old.

:iagree: Small plecs do great work! Its when they get big, then they don't like algae too much. Mine have kept algae to a minimum. No scraping needed.
 
I thought all filters suck? Suck in? And pump out? :ROFL:
