Quickest way to get rid of this wierd black bushy hair algae its growing like mad!!!!!
 
its on live plants though?? shal i just get rid of the plants and then lots of water changes??
 
Water change and less light.
I had a outbreak awhile ago, frequent water changes and a lot less time with lights on seemed to work.
I also ended up adding more plants - not sure if that helps or not but it hasnt come back.
 
New lamps, it usually only occurs in my planted tank when the lamps are about a year old and loosing power. Once I replace the lamps it goes away.
 
flagtail prochilodus? If you have the room, they are great cleaners.
