HI all. This is my planted cherry shrimp tank, I'm struggling with algae that thrive from plant fertilizers and co2. Will it be safe for my shrimp to add a uv sterilizer to my tank?
Thanks

Inspector413, what cool creature is in your picture?!Inspector413 said:Just got done running a regimen of UV light to solve an algal bloom. I've got shrimp (ghost and Amano) and White Clouds. Ran for 5hr/day for 8 days, checking water ever other day. Algae was gone after about 5. No harm to shrimp, fish or beneficial bacteria. In fact, my Amanos spent quite a bit of time crawling all over it, with no ill effects. What a huge difference it made in water quality!
LOL! It's an Orchid Mantis (Hymenopus coronatus).ROFEA said:Inspector413, what cool creature is in your picture?!
