I love the plants, but they're also fighting a war with black beard algae and it's been touch and go

Oh man. Algae. The bane of live plant aquariums.

That and snails were things I was always fighting when I had an aquarium. Yeah, on the plants it is not an attractive look at all.

it'll look better when I'm done medicating it and can put the carbon filter back in

I'm currently doing a heat treatment for ich and combining it with Melafix to cover any secondary fungus or bacteria issues

I moved the anacharis and added some leaves to try and bring down the water hardness

the gouramis both ate so well today but they're still begging for food

I also changed the lights, I hope they inhibit algae growth better
