ALGAE- Good, Bad, Ugly, or Exotic - Algae Transforms Your Aquarium

1 year ago

Algae is your best friend. There are 1,000s of types of algae so you might as well pick out a favorite. Although many algae are bad actors, most are pretty harmless.

The harmless algae can be found mostly in the green algae classification. There are thousands of algae in this group and they are differentiated by their appearance.

Shrimp, Snails and Ostracods eat green algae. Examples of green algae include green water. Green water is wonderful and looks worse than it actually is. Another example of a green algae is spot algae. This is a single celled algae the grows into a colony.

Algae is a sign that your aquarium is alive and that nutrients are present. But the down side to these algae are the cynobacteria algae. The algae are nasty and you do not want them in your aquarium at all.

There are exotic algae like golden algae and bird bath algae (red algae) that serve many useful purposes to both fish keepers and humans. So, you see, algae is your friend, not your enemy.
