My tank was doing so good..... then the brush algae came. I had to trim the plants all the time just to keep the algae down. It's so gross looking. It looks like pubes. Anyone know a cure for it for sure?
Unidentified species of algae. Possibly Endocladia spp. (nail brush seaweed or sea moss).

Green algae is Hydrodictyon, the water net. It is a related to Pediastrum, but it forms a bag-shaped colony. Like Pediastrum each individual cell can develop into a new colony. You can imagine that since the colony contains thousands of cells Hydrodictyon can reproduce very rapidly. And unlike Pediastrum, Hydrodictyon can grow large, almost 30 cm. in length. Blooms of Hydrodictyon can be a real problem for water treatment plants.
A rare and unusual specimen of algae preserved in clear chalcedony. Originally it would have been growing in silica-rich run-off from geothermal hot springs. Kaueranga Valley, Thames
16. If it's overgrown with vegetation, it's a candidate for this assignment.
Yesterday the Great Pond was opened to the ocean, draining water from the shore, exposing this algae encrusted grasses. I have lived here for 28 years and I have never seen this before - alarming!
some of the former salt ponds have terrible water circulation at this point, leading to these large algae blooms which can kill off any fish or shrimp living in the pond. an egret here seems to be after something, though...

Algae on the petite anubia nana. I am trying to decide if I should toss this slow growing plant or try to nurture it until the algae is gone. Any suggestions?
Using an algae destroyer is easy. All you have to do is follow the easy directions on the label of the algae destroyer. You will need to know how many gallons of water your pond, pool, or aquarium has before you can determine how much algae destroyer to use. Some people are of the mistaken view that using too much algae destroyer is a good way to help severe cases of algae, but too much can harm fishes. Those who leave negative feedback about a type of algae destroyer often have bad experiences simply because they failed to follow the directions.
These algae live in near boiling water near the fault line that runs through New Zealand. Almost looks like an aerial shot of a delta but the "lake" is less than a meter long.

this is the flora responsible for the breakdown of one of the most unique coastlines in North America. It's eating it little by little.. mmmm
