Howdy guys! This is FishNewbie remember me? Well I havnt been posting for a LONG time becuase I was focusing on school and lacrosse season and havnt had time. Well if ya remember I was trying to get a job at Pet Smart but that didnt work out. However I do have a job. My next door neighbor owns his own buisness and he hooked me up with a job with good hours and decient money. With the money ive been making I bought a car!!! Its a 2000 Dodge Neon. I know its a girl car but I like it and it runs great. Now that ive told ya what ive been doing now on to my fish. If you remember right before I stopped posting I had 5 Tetras and 1 Golden AlgaeEater in my 10g tank. Well all my fish WERE doing great till I got the Algae eater. He first unleashed his wrath on one of my Bloodfin tetras and i found him dead . After that I wanted to get rid of him but I was really busy, didnt have much time, and couldnt find someone that would take him. Well finally he killed every fish in my tank except BARF who was too fast and strong for him, until I found a place for him. Right now my tank is pretty crappy but barf still lives happily by himself. I had to take out all the plants becuase there were WAY to many snails. No since the plants are out tons of hair algae is growing. I have a few questions. How can I get rid of the algae? Should I scrape it all off and then go get some more plants and wash them off first to ensure theres not snails? Also I plan on getting a 55g tank still like it says in my sig but I wanna know whats the best way to filter it. Should I use undergravel filters, canister, hang on ones, or a combonation.
