Intro:

Algae is the #1 issue hobbyists bring to us at ProHobby. Most of the time, it’s not your fault—it’s your light, water, or fertilizer balance.

Common Algae Types in Delhi Aquariums:

  • Brown Algae – high levels of ammonia
  • Green Spot Algae – due to phosphate imbalance
  • Hair Algae – usually from excess iron/light
  • BBA (Black Beard Algae) – caused by unstable COâ‚‚
  • Green Water – common after tank cycling or during summer

Top 5 Solutions:

  • Regulate light exposure
  • Use balanced fertilizers – not just iron-rich ones
  • Increase water changes
  • Add algae eaters
  • Try spot-dosing with algae control kits
