I'm learning everyday.

Maybe next time you will ask an actual question you want, rather than asking one thing, and then being a jerk to those helping you. I answered the question in full earlier.

I did ask an actual question. I'm not being a jerk, just pointing out a contradiction in order to help you improve the good advice you've been sharing.

Thread algae will take over. The best method for removal is unfortunately physical removal.

That will only work IF you have good parameter balance, high-light plants, and fast growing plants.

If you included the second tidbit of info in the first post, then, your answer would've been complete. After reading the first post, I thought that even though I had a good amount of fast growing plants, and balanced nutrient levels, that the algae would overrun my tank.

Yes they are, they are one of my top favorite fish. The male is an *** though and is killing it's tank mates.

He killed one of the 4 females the other day.

I'm going to move him into the 10g planted tank by himself, and move the dwarf puffers that are currently in there, into the 20g with the female irrubescos.

I put one dwarf in the 20g two weeks ago to see how it fared, and neiher the male or female irrubescos care to bother with such a small fish, so hopefully the DP's and female irru's can live together.
