Regular Member yafashelli Posted July 1, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted July 1, 2013 You'll need some sort of full spectrum lighting, so watch your lightbulb's kelvin rating. You'll want something in the neighborhood of 5000k-6500k, and you'll just need to let the algae do its thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member yafashelli Posted July 1, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted July 1, 2013 I find that algae only grows when and where I don't want it to, so make sure you tell your tank, "NO ALGAE CARPET". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
