Hi all, I just got my biocube 29 all set up and running, but it is right in front of a window. This window is south of the aquarium, and gets no direct sunlight. There are also lots of trees right outside the window, but the aquarium gets a little bit of indirect sunlight every day. Will this small amount of sunlight be enough to cause algae problems in my tank? Thanks!
 
I have a 15 gal and a 20 gal by my window within 2 days (I get direct ssunlight) the 15 is really green gonna get black backgrounds. The 20 has no algae and both have plants... But with not much sunlight I think you'll be fine

I'm sure it will be fine bud

you should be ok. i have a 55 by a window and i do get algae. nothing real crazy though. it really is no more work than normal.
 
Not anymore really more than otherwise. Kill it before it spreads, it may look pretty now but it won't when it covers your tank.
