Hi
Ok I am cycled - have had no nitrites at all for a week or so now and I now have about 10 small healthy and happy fish. Its a 200L tank so I have room for loads more but I want to collect them slowly.
Problem is - I have developed blue-green and brown algae mostly on the sand substrate.
Whenever I hoover out its back within 24 hours and worse than before. Is this normal with a newish tank? Will it go as everything settles down or do I have to do something drastic?
Thanks
Steve
