Green Water
I have a QT tank that has developed Green Water.... nothing appears to keep it in check that I have done. I have done 90% water changes, I have used All-Gone, did lights out etc... but still its green like a phyto culture.
Anyone have any ideas on the best way to get rid of this stuff??? |

UV sterilizer is the only thing I know of that kills of an algae bloom.

You could try to add live rotifers if you don´t have a UV. An ozone unit might also help but I am not sure. Do you have high nutrients in the QT? How is the water cleaned?

A skimmershould pull it out. You need to address the nutrient problem that is causing the green water tho'.
