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...

How to remedy when the problem is already deep rooted...thats why la...must be carefull next time u set up a tank....to get rid of algae is a not simply task...most people just give up....and buy new plants...and actually theres some logic in this. the money u spend on trying to cure this could be higher than actually buying new plants...and the worst part is ...sleep time also think about how to cure algae problem...wa lau ..can siao one hor....sex life also can get interuppted one hor...........

"where were u ?"...
>>huh im right here...why?
"dont lie ok...i gurantee u outside got another girl"
>> no la ,i think about "Algae"
"waai, u dare mention her name ah:

what i usually do is ...i mean if u are broke as i am and only buy cheap emerge plants. i always buy 2...one for the tank and the other for the garden.
works sort like spare part...and also to learn how they actually growm both emerge and submerge....with moss...u almost can inherit a moss farm 6 months after u palnt that little patch
