NOTE: THIS IS A BRACKISH SETUP, but i am looking for any ideas...
what is the appearance of good and bad algea?
i have a cycled 29 brackish that about 1 month ago i added live aggrogite to. i have since lost a couple of fish (weakend and fell to the power of intakes), now my gsp is black, not eatting and lying down (not his usual behaviour by far). tonight i did a 1/3 water change which did help his color for about an hour.... now he is back to black... i have even tried tempting him with ghost shrimp, those are hiding from the figure 8 by sitting on the gsp's head...
upon a thourough inspection i found my first colony of algea since adding the new media, a small light green/brown on glass (looks like a normal algea)... then found a kind of light brown kinda clear silky fur algea growing on an ornament and only in on piece of this multi piece ornament... on this piece there are 4 small patches totaling no more than one inch in size combimed...
anyone out there know thier algeas? please help!!!! i cannot afford to loose any more puffers!
