The growth of green algae can not be separated from adequate light, if the fish tank is placed in the sunny place, the plant will grow rapidly, resulting in full of the whole fish tank. Therefore, the fish tank can be placed away from the window at ordinary times to reduce the possibility of direct light, which can limit the growth rate of green algae.
In addition to limiting the growth of green algae, but also regularly clean up, the fastest way to take effect is drug algae removal, that is, a variety of algaecides. It should be noted that some ingredients in algaecides are harmful to the health of fish, so when using them, we must control the dosage, or dilute them before pouring them into the fish tank.
Drug algae removal has certain risks, so you can also choose the way of biological algae removal, that is, to raise some fish or aquatic animals that can eat green algae, such as snails, scavengers and pipa rats, etc. It should be noted that mixed culture of fish has certain risks, we must ensure that their body shape is similar. In order to avoid the situation of big fish swallowing small fish.
Of course, you can also choose the artificial way to remove algae, but it is a little more troublesome, you can use a small shovel to shovel the green algae, if the big fish tank is best to use a magnetic shovel. In addition, a good filtration system and frequent water changes can also reduce the number of green algae, which is very helpful to control its growth.
