I see no problem with those algaes...keep up with the wc regularly, to take out phosphate and nitrates and you should be fine.

Aro won't be hurt by algae, per se

I say just clean your tank and do a 20% water change.....hey, water changes are always a good idea....algae might not hurt....neither, is a clean as well.

I think your algae is green spot algae. They're hard to remove from the glass usually. No harm done on your fish though.

Maybe but that is not always the case. It depends on the dietary regimen you are providing your fish.

it won't hurt the aro, but you shouldn't have too much of it.. plecs usually don't suck slime off of fish that move a lot, like dats and aros. if you want a cool fish that eats algae, get a flagtail. of course, there are a lot of cool plecs, but they don't eat that much algae, esp as they age
