How to handle algae!
Eventually you may begin to see algae grow on the glass or gravel. It may appear brown or green. Algae are underwater plants that grow in all aquariums. To reduce the growth of algae, make sure the aquarium light is turned on for no longer than 12 hours each day. Routine maintenance that includes making partial water changes (20% of the aquarium water) every month helps dilute algae-promoting nutrients like nitrate and phosphate. Phosphate and nitrate levels can be monitored with the API Phosphate and API Nitrate Test Kits. Algae Destroyer AdvancedT or AlgaeFix?, are liquid products that can be used to control algae growth and reduce maintenance. Also, use a Doc Wellfish Algae Scraper to remove algae from the glass. Algae-eating fish such as plecostomus catfish, otocinclus, and flying fox will also help clean up the aquarium.

Koi (carp) are the most well recognized pond fish. They come in a variety of different colour patterns. Some koi have been reported to live up to 75 years and reach over 3 feet (0.9 meters) in length.

Beautifully simple water gardening

Planted aquariums are growing in popularity due to the increasing trend of captivating lush aquatic gardens. They are easily achieved with the vast varieties of aquatic plants and support equipment available. Combinations of Glo fluorescent bulbs will produce a complete spectral output that efficiently stimulates plant growth. Although fish are not the main emphasis, planted aquariums serve to highlight their beauty and natural behavior.

The quantity of light for faster growing plant species should approach a minimum of 3 Watts per gallon. As wattage is increased, more attention to fertilization and CO2 levels is recommended.
