If you have a heavily-planted fish tank, you know that your worst enemy
isn't ich or fungus - it's algae. Typically, the fish in the tank
cost far less than the plants. It's a crime what a little neglect
can do to a well-planted tank. Miss a few water changes, add a
little pH buffering solution to your water, have strong light, use
some plant fertilizer, and chances are you'll be looking at algae that
will cost you plenty of green stuff.
It has happened to me. I used fertilizers as recommended on the
packages, added Wimex iron supplement, had 2 20 W fluorescent tubes on
top of the 75 $\ell$ tank, and had pretty good plant growth. My
Apongeton crispus were flowering, my Echinodorus bleheri were
flowering -- I was on top of the world. Then it happened. A dark green algae
started to cover some of the plants. I thought - ``no sweat'', I bought
the algecide from Aquarium Pharmaceuticals, placed the recommended
amount into the tank, and watched my fish (mostly tetras, but also a
plecostamus) go crazy trying to jump out of the tank. I rapidly did a
50\% water change which seemed to calm the fish down, and did another
50\% water change the next day. I noticed that the nice green algae
was dead, but the ugly stringy stuff and the dark green slimy stuff
was doing great. Algecide was definitely not the right treatment.
