150 gal fresh water aquiriama greenishbrown substance is growing on the things in the tank how do you clean them and prevent it from happening?
The growth is Algae and it is natures way of cleaning water. It forms in water where there is spare light and nutrients for it to grow. You could try putting in more plants as competition to use up more of the available Nitrates and Potasium and you could also decrease the length of time and/or the brightness of the lighting. The only way to clean them is to remove them and either replace or physically scrub the algae off. Algae eaters will not and can not remove all the algae so that is not worth a consideration. Neither is the addition of chemicals.

Can pullotion kill green algae?
No, pollution of the water is what causes the green algae. When extra nutrients such as pesticides, runoff, & human/animal waste are added to the water, it in a matter of speaking, makes the algae go nuts. The algae starts to grow in vast, huge amounts. The algae clouds the top of the water, blocking the sunlight that all the plants and animals need. When the algae dies it covers the grass beds and destroys the aquatic plants and animals' habitats. The only real way to stop the algae is to quit polluting the bays. oceans, rivers, etc.
