Aglae problem

[isreal6655]

How do I get rid of black algae. It's on my feather dusters. Should I buy a algae eater and if so which one.

and spelling problems, too!:doh: "Aglae"

Any pictures? Black algae on feather dusters sounds very odd to me.

No I just got it and I'll put pictures up in an hour or two

How is it now? Hope your feather duster is okay.

You have Cyanobacteria

Ho2o works good

It looks pretty much the same. I looked it up and it says leave the lights off for three days. Does that sound like a good idea. I also read that nerite snail eat the Cyanobacteria so I got some of those.

you can shut off the lights for 3-5 days.... its just like a cloudy, rainy weekend. Shouldn't hurt anything, but still probably wont fix the problem. May just grow else where
