A two man operation to remove red algae? What method are you using?
Wayne Sallee
Just a bucket and a siphon hose. The counter is so high I have my wife
control the flow of the siphon. I could do it by myself but it would take
more water to clean up the tank. Also, because it is a tall tank I rigged up
a handle for the siphon hose to reach the bottom.
The algae growth is slower now that I arranged the fans so they are covering
more of the tank. The light from the kitchen on and the sky light are just
too much light. I've cut the aquarium lights and I'm hoping by just
vacuuming it regularly the algae will die out.
