- I have a smallish (15 gallon) tank with a lot of algae, i.e. the water
- is downright green. I have kept the light off, the feeding minimal and
- the Ph is just fine. Short of emptying the tank and starting over,
- is there something else I can do to kill the algae, i.e.
- copper sulfate crystals, potassium permangante crystals or even a copper
- penny which is toxic to the algae but not my guppies, et al.
-
- Help is wanted....
-
- Any advice is appreciated.

- Thanks in advance,
