Help! My low light 10G w/15W bulb is slowly being taken over by this soft fuzzy algae. It all on the rocks, partially on the gravels and starting on the leaf edges. At one time, this tank was very stable then all of a sudden it went wacko and I never go a handle on it since then. It all started went I uprooted my Job stick and didn't notice it till the algae started growing. I've had BG and this red one covering the whole tank at one time, plants, gravel rocks and all. I finally controlled the BG but now stuck with the fuzzy stuff. I can get it down to a minimum but if I don't stay on top of it, bamm, algae city. I'd like to get rid of it completely if possible. What's required to do this or is it possible?
Water changes are once a week with light vaccum and rubbing most of the fuzz off. NO3 at 10ppm. No CO2 or other ferts. I do need a SAE but can't find one. Otos don't eat this stuff. Other then that the fish are happy and the plants are growing fine.
Very fustrating...
