Rhizoclonium / Hair Algae .. again..

BiscuitSlayer · 12-20-2007, 12:48 PM

Now? I just use the Flourish micros every other day. 29 gal tank and I am dosing a capful. I haven't used the Seachem Iron since my hair algae outbreak a couple of years ago.

I do admit that I am pretty sure that I dosed too much into my tank. I just don't remember how much that was. Also had another weird issue when I mixed the micros and iron together or dosed them too close together. Got a milky reaction in the water.

The green hair algae has came to a halt, although still there it doesn't look like its getting worse.

As for the Rhizo, well even after a complete re-scape and cleaning of entire tank the crap is back within a day. This is so irritating.
