Green Hair Algae - How to Get Rid of It FOREVER... Just Kidding, 3 Ways to Get Rid of Slimy Green Hair Algae
In this video, I hope to ask and answer the following questions about slimy neon green hair algae and hard crusty brown, red or black diatom algae. (everything but blue green algae, cyanobacteria or black beard algea is covered). How to get rid of algae with the blackout method aka the "nuclear method" or "going to the bottle" is not how you should approach your first Algae bloom, especially in a planted tank with high tech substrates, soils, fertilizers, co2, lighting and root tabs.
The holistic method of controlling lights or co2 and trying to out compete the algae growth while also hand removing areas of it, after allowing it to grow enough that it will easily be removed by hand in slimy clumps, followed by a large water change of 50% every 3 days for 1-2 weeks & then several days of 10 to 30% water changes, depending on severity.
