Feather Dusters and Camra
 
I want to buy a feather duster, and i tried looked at sites about them, but there is none, anything special i need to know?

and my mom finally bought a new digital camra, since the other one broke, once i figure out how to use it, i will take lots of pictures of my tank for yyou all.....

just an update on my tank, my seahorse is still swimming away i just bought a new scooter blennie, still have my firefish goby, and my mushrooms that kuttaos gave me are doing wounderful, and the red micro algea that bev. gave me at the get together is doing wounderful, i plann on this month or next to finally get some pc lighting for it, yeah i know i said i wouldnt do it, but i have fallen in love with my 20gal, but i did see a nice 230gal at A.I. :P but that for when i get the house :P

but everything is going great, now to show you pictures, oh yeah i still have the darn algea problem, and the shrimp which i forgot to mention is not doing his job! same with the hermit crabs! but yeah :)

If you're expecting the shrimp to help with algae, don't. :razz: Depending on the type of algae, more/less light, more current, use of RO water if you're not already may help.

Is that even close to any language in existence?

Matt,

Algae on the glass can be removed by several means. A magnetic remover, the blue scouring pad method (make sure you buy it at a lfs meant for glass), or a credit card.

Also, scrape off the algae the morning of your water change, then clean the living heck out of your foams, or whatever you have in your mechanical filter, in outgoing changewater. Cleaning the algae off the glass, then leaving it in the tank will just get you more algae. Cleaning your filter is the most important step on your weekly water change day, imo.
