Absolutely one of the best tutorial channels there is!! Thank you for taking the time to make this video!! Thank you very much for explaining to us all the types of algae and the specific causes for why we may be experiencing algae outbreaks! Water changes are definitely the key plus... just clean your tank 😂💚
I don't have any fancy aquascapes..YET... but the ones I have are thriving because of what I've learned on this channel!! The only thing I'm not doing is CO2 at this moment! But with what I've learned with you guys I'm ready to give it a try! No nonsense tips and education that will help you create beautiful planted aquariums!!
I also appreciated everyone sending in the pictures of their algae... It really helps me identify and be able to take care of any problems that may arise!!

[seraphim]

After this video, I stare at my tank looking for algae. 😂

[christianhobelsberger]

Right now im filtering my 30L Tank with 600L/Hours. I thought it might be overkill in terms of waterflow, but its not even noticeable... I followed your Guidelines in terms of filtration and i came to the conclusion: Just get the biggest badass filter you can get. Its 100%!!!! worth it!!!

Nice video. Just FYI, the pictures at 6:27 and 19:03 are cladophora. The picture at 19:49 is not. Also, nuisance cladophora is not the same kind as the moss ball cladophora. Cladophora is one of the few algaes that cannot travel through air spores. It will only enter your tank on shoddy live plants, which is where the moss ball myth comes from.

I've beaten it before and here's some tips: It thrives in a high tech tanks unfortunately, because it has a plant-like structure that is much more similar to a moss than an algae. This prevents it from being eaten by algae eaters or outcompeted by plants for nutrients. The way i got rid of it was by reducing lighting massively for many months, and spot dosing liquid carbon heavily. A black out will not work, as it can survive for a while in the dark, it must be outcompeted for light by other plants. Once you've got it, you will never be rid of it fully, but you can manage it, so don't freak out.

I used to have a tank that had plastic plants and lots of algae, but until I started watching you on this channel, you have inspired me to build a beautiful high tech planted tank which is what I now have. Thank you.

I'm so pleased that you confirmed my thoughts on marimo moss balls. I had one for around 3 years in my tank, then it began to fall apart. I had no idea how dangerous this was, and I just put the smaller pieces around the tank. After a month or so I started to see tiny green tuffs appearing in the tank on plants and wood, but at this point I didn't connect it to the moss ball. In time I ended up with algae covering most of the bogwood and when trying to remove it, I thought how much like a moss ball it was. That's when I realised what had happened. The moss ball is long gone but the algae has remained ever since and it's the only thing in my non co2 tank that pearls :(

[Sorrowsofthemoon]

I needed this video so badly! The fight against thread algae seems impossible.

[Limak_Akwarysta]

Thank you. Great movie ! Greetings from Poland 😉

[kazukiorg]

"No algae was harmed in the making of this motion picture." In other words Balazs didn't ate any algae this time ;)
Thanks for next great material and take care ;)
