Wahh please help with my algae... it is a nightmare algae man.

Staghorn algae
Looks like individual strands of hair algae but tends to grow in single branching strands like a deer antler and is grey-green. Seems to grow mostly on tank equipment near the surface. Difficult to remove mechanically. Soak affected equipment in a 25% solution of household bleach and water to remove it.

Bleach only can... if I pull it off my plants, those plants like glosso usually get uprooted, then they get weakened and then even MORE of these algae grow on them. OMG..... this algae is just no fun to deal with. Right now i'm just leaving it alone, hopefully my plants grow stable and strong so can fight them off. They won't grow on healthy plants.. but it grow on dead leaves and stuff like a parasite.

I took the algae out and felt them.. they're thick and very tough...
