My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Need help with Algae...or whatever this stuff is!

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

Have a new 120L tank with 6 tetras and a betta. Feeding them flakes. Tank has a power filter, but I'm not sure what this stuff is! (photo attached) Other forums I've looked at have suggested that it might be the flakes themselves...how to solve? Water vacuum?
