    Removing Hair Algae

    Is it BBA or Hair algae ? BBA is much harder to get rid of. Rosy barbs worked great getting rid of hair algae for me. More CO2 is the only way I have been able to get rid of BBA.

    apistogramma-bitaeniata or apistogramma-agassizii double red

    No, they wont dig up your plants. Cave help if you want to breed them. The female will like to have shelter to hide in.

    apistogramma-bitaeniata or apistogramma-agassizii double red

    I would go with the bitaeniata just because they are less common. Both require very clean water so dont get lax on the water changes. Neither should be a problem with your plants, Apistos do great in planted tanks. You should be fine with a pair of either in a 20g.

    Front seemed to have stop eating pellets

    They will eat flake but dont seemed too excited about it. They will eat frozen foods. I dont think they are sick. I have heard about adding garlic juice to the pellets but dont know if that will make them sick. I recently sold 4 of the fronts i originally had 7. Almost like they are depressed.

    I need help with my planted aquarium

    Im no expert, but Iron is good for plants. I know a lot of the ferts i use have iron in them. It helps that are suppose to be red get that color. You can also buy tap water conditioners that will take metals out of the water. Just my 2 cents.
