What works well for my husband and I is the 2 net method. One of us will coral the fish down to one side of the tank and the other one will catch them. It works quite well.

I should mention that I did the light change and loads of water changes for a while before trying the purigen and while it did help some, it didn't fully clear up until I put the purigen in my filter.

I think a combination of changing my lights (raising them and cutting back on the time they were on) and purigen helped to clear up my green water. It took about 3 days for my water to clear up.

Thanks :)

I have a 750 gal/hour power head in my tank so I hope that is enough water movement. All the plants sway in the current, even the smallest leaves on my crypts right next to the gravel.
