Re: Algae on substrate

You say the powerheads are high in the tank.. I would try to get some more flow towards the bottom of the tank and see if that help..

Photo period is total hours all lights are on... mine is 9-10 hours a day... I would reduce the lighting a couple hours a day and see if that helps as well.
