Ok I have done some tank movements and have everything setup as I want it but I have alot of brown algae in my 20H. I have 6 pepper cories in it but they don't do anything for the algae. I have a couple live plants and a few other fish in the tank. Is there anything I can put in there to keep the brown stuff down to a min. I am looking for a type of fish to add. I think it has a lot to do with my tap water so I know there will most likely be a steady amount of it in the tanks. I also have a 20L but no bottome feeders so what would be good for that one. My water is very hard and has a higher pH so I would be looking for something that can handle the prams. You can look below to see what fish I have and were.
20H
2 Bleeding Heart Tetras
4 Pristella Tetras
1 Painted Glassfish
6 Pepper Cory
20L
1 Fancey Male Guppy
4 Gold Barbs
6 Harlequin Rasbora
4 Cherry Barbs
I am looking for something that can be kept single and not need to be in a group and will go good with the other fish. I only have problems with brown algae but do have algae wafers that I will add if needed.
I also wanted to add that I do water changes every week. I do what I am supposed to to keep up with the tanks but I still cannot get rid of the brown algae. I really enjoy my cories but as stated before they don't tend to eat the brown stuff. I also want it to be know that I do enjot the bottom feeders that I do have and don't want everyone to think this is the only reason I have them. I don't have a problem with the algae on the glass just on the plants and decor in the tank. Not sure as to why it is only in them areas and not all over. Thanks
