Dino's?

Sully · Oct 17, 2014

I've always thought I was battling green hair/cyano. After reading another thread I'm starting to think Dino's? If so, what is an effective treatment? I try manually removing during water changes but can't get rid of it.

If this pic won't help, I'll try and get a clearer one tonight after work or Tomorrow.

Here's one of the back glass and some rock. The bubbles are what concerns me.

I'm pretty sure this is cyano and it's nearly gone without chemicals.

Have you consider building an algae scrubber?

Thanks but algae scrubber won't work for me. Bump for anyone else?
