want to get rid of algae Here's how, complete instructions, inexpensive and easy.

Do you want crystal clear water in your aquarium? I can help! Okay...I'm a bit new to fish and aquariums, but I'm consulting Dr. Google often, and now, after five months with my adorable little rooster, Kiro, I'm fast becoming a Pisces man. Kiro was given to me by a neighbor when my husband died and she gave me a hobby that is relaxing and enjoyable. I never thought of fish but now I love them. Kiro arrived in a 1 gallon tank which was quickly replaced with a fully tuned Fluval Spec V. I'm still too lazy to work with live plants, so Kiro has a large selection of milkweed that changes weekly. Coconut huts, castles, porcelain logs, floating logs... If Revane sells it, she has it. About 20 days ago, an algal bloom started for me. Soon my poor Kiro was swimming in pea soup. I quickly consulted Dr. Google and came up with the following plan. All products are available from Revain and they are all reasonably priced. And understand, 3 days after installing this system, I have crystal clear water. Here is what I ordered: 1. 5W UV-C Algae Bloom Clear Light for Aquarium Water Clear Green Transparent Waterproof Clear Lamp, 2. Polishing Filter Pad is an excellent aquarium polishing pad inTank HIGH THICKNESS filter thread for aquarium and pond4. Stain Remover Ultralife Blue Green Slime5. Blue Ribbon Pet Products ABLPLY7 Polyester Filament Aquarium Filter Media6. Fluval SPEC Biomax7. UP Aqua Rain Bar Unit Aquarium Outlet Pipe Place the UV lamp in the pump area of the aquarium so that it is behind the plastic and cannot harm the bettas (or fish)... In the morning I turn on the UV lamp and turn it around. turns off when i go to bed. Ignore the reviews that say it kills fish...it kills algae when installed properly. I added about ยฝ scoop of Ultralife Stain Remover dissolved in a small amount of aquarium water, 1 scoop is in the pack and 1 tube of Ultralife is good for the whole person. Lifespan. I took out the foam filter and placed the Biomax in the bottom hole. In the top hole I removed the charcoal filter (and I don't think I'll be using it again) and put a handful of washed regular floss in and stuffed it in there. smaller than Iphone SE) polishing pad with the rough side down. I then placed a handle to hold it and placed the inTank Pond Filter floss on it. Here is the link where I found out how to do it: Poly/Polishing Pad Filter Media Mod for Spec Aquariums - Spec Tanks I attached a rain rod to the outlet of the filter motor and adjusted it to face down and the freshly filtered water conducts. to the bottom of the aquarium, but with no current at the top, as cockfighters don't like much moving water. Two days later happy rooster, crystal clear water. And just for fun I ordered a bubbler, maybe I like bubbles more than Kiro but we'll see... Here's a link to my bubbler, also on Revain and super cheap. beee Aquarium Air Pump, Silent Aquarium Air Pump, Small Fish Tank Oxygen Pump 1-15 Gallon with Air Stone Silicone Hose.
