Callatya Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Please tell me its not what I think it is, please tell me its just an ordinary easy to kill algae. I have never ever had algae in my tanks, and the last 6 months have just gone and thrown a spanner in that. First the bushy one, now this nasty stuff? I'm not feeling well at all! I wonder if it has to do with the drought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishchick Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 have you checked the phosphate level in your water? It's been going through the roof here because of the drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambo Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 my guess is because of those floods we had? farmers phos mix runs with the water and ends up in the water supply somewhere :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
