Re: Water Changes?

Ok thanks guys. I guess I was just worrying about missing the one. I hate to miss them, but work was so busy last weekend it was disgusting. Also, Luau is is FW at the moment, because I wanted to start upping the SG last weekend, but couldn't cause of work, and I stressed out so much about missing the wc that I just wanted to get it done this weekend, so it looks like this coming weekend is my goal. I have waited to do it since I have gotten him, just because of how he arrived. I am paranoid, so I wanted to make sure he was stable, healthy and happy before messing with his water, LoL.

So any suggestions for BW algae eaters or is there something that I could do to get rid of it? It's slowly taking over everything...I have 3 otos in my 10 gallon with PZ and they are thriving, and doing an awesome job. They eat the algae as fast as it grows, and when it runs out, I have algae wafers on hand to give at night if they act like they can't find food. So the 10 gallon looks good lol, but the 20 gallon is slowly getting worse....I wonder if this will get better going to brackish water and using RO water....

Thanks all for your input!! :D
