Lights and algae
I can’t remember if it was someone one here…but someone told me that leaving my tank lights on could cause algae…is that right?
This sounds really bad, but I am looking to grow SOME algae in my tanks.
I wanted to get these two little algae eaters…but my tanks haven’t been set up very long (one-less than a month. the other maybe at the most 2 weeks). So I have been trying to feed them the algae discs/wafers that they are supposed to eat.
They’re not eating them…the discs absorb the water, crumble, and make a mess in the rocks…that’s when the fish don’t eat them up.
So my algae eaters are frantically “tasting” every inch of the glass and I think they aren’t finding food.
I have had them since Sunday, and they may not have eaten hardly at all (IF at all) since then…what can I do???
Thanks, anndrea
