View Full Version : Weird stuff's a-growin on the sand. superwaterguy52 Jan 6th, 2007, 04:31pm Ok, all yous peoples, I got some weird.... browny-green type stuffs grownin on meh sand. What is it and what do I do about it? cthulhu77 Jan 6th, 2007, 05:05pm Without photos or a better description, it would be impossible to say. Check your water parameters too ! AprylWillis Jan 6th, 2007, 06:14pm Sounds like algae. AprylWillis Jan 6th, 2007, 06:15pm I usually just sift the sand. I wouldn't recommend putting anything that claims it can get rid of it by simply putting in a liquid. Do you have a vacuum? That's how I sift my sand--I also do it manually. What type of light do you use? Animal Mother Jan 6th, 2007, 08:53pm Siphon it out with a hose. cthulhu77 Jan 6th, 2007, 09:06pm Well, before we all get excited, it would probably be best to find out what the particulates are like, and maybe a pic or two? AprylWillis Jan 9th, 2007, 03:33pm I don't know if we should wait for him to take pictures. I would recommend siphoning out like Animal Mother and I suggested. |
