Thanks. Well I did a big W/C today wiped off the algae and got 3 more fish. I also planted a small piece of DHG.
Starting a planted tank.

Yea buddy buddy! I'm starting to see new plants growing and plants starting to spread out. I have 2 carpet plants can't wait to see how that's going to look spread out all across the tank.
Made my own sponge filter since I could not find one. I still have a little algae problems but not as bad.
Pretty easy bought a replacement sponge from a lfs cut it in the middle to fit over my filter. Or you could get a airpump with a air stone cut the middle of the sponge to fit the air stone in it.
Little update: I have algae on my tanks glass and some on the little rocks in my tank. I been running the light 8hrs a day trying to see if that works but nope. The weather here got cold this week down to 30° and I had one glowlight die not sure what happen but it might of been old already. One of the bulbs I planted is growing like crazy one of the leaf's on it grew all the way out of the water and some new plant is growing too.
Here is a small video I made with my phone.
