oh... i didnt know that, well how can I get some algae to grow quickly? What does algae plague and thrive on quickly?
Also what about this, my mom has a KOI pond outside and there is algae all over the sides of pond. Is this alright or is it just the same? Anyways can anyone help out on how to make this occuring menace for a cause?
Also- I thought AMANO shrimp ate a hybrid of scavenging for leftover food/algae.
The ghost shrimp doesent eat algae does it>???? or is it jus the fry?

Try putting a larger jar of your aquarium water out in the sun for a couple of days with the lid on. Green water algae is shure to spawn. It will help if you put in a pinch (a small pinch) of water soluable fertilizer. Make sure it has no weed killer in it.
When the green water has grown, test the water for ammonia, nitrite and pH. If it has any trace of ammonia or nitites, throw it out. If the ammonia & nitrites are 0 and the pH is off by more than 1/2 of a pH unit, pour out half the jar water and test again. If the water is Ok for ammonia, nitrites and pH is less than 1/2 of a unit from your tank water, float the jar in your aquarium for a half hour to equalize the tempurature, then add your shrimp.
*note* This seems right to me. If anyone sees any flaw to this theory please correct
thanx.
