ok if anyone has read my posts about my trouble with bga,now please correct me if im wrong about what im going to say.
bga is not a true algae correct,and it exists in nearly every form of water,not sure if its in tap water.
and it relies on photosynthesis to grow just like plants,so i have two tanks,one with plants one without
both use the same water from my hma filter,the one without plants has the same amount of light as my planted tank but never had any algae problems,i know that plants are supposed to outcompete for nutrients so as algae cannot get a foot hold,so why are my two tanks so different,or am i missing something important here
