Fishkeeping - algae growth

Thanks, I haven't been to that store. I hate treking across the bridges
if I can avoid it, but I'll check them out.

Sorry. The binary post that I tested before worked - I just figured
everyone could do the same if it wasn't too big a file size.

Anyway, turns out to be hair algae. My nitrates are low, so I assume
it's a phosphate thing. I don't have a test for that though. I've
already turned my light cycles down - I was previously running them for
12 hours.

I tried to find some mangrove plants in town (Vancouver area) - but
nobody seems to carry them. I'll try removing the hair from the rocks,
and then a partial water change.

Brandon, Brandon, Brandon, :-) If you want people to see your posts,
don't attach files to a non-binary newsgroup.

A lot of servers filter out attachments made on non-binary newsgroups.
Don't attach pictures to non-binary newsgroups. Instead put them on a
web page, and post a link to that web page.

It seems like a lot of work to pull all this out. I'm hoping to
prevent it from happening again even if I do get rid of it.

If you torture the data long enough, eventually it will confess
to anything.
