Hi,
I bought the macro algae from petshrimp. What color is normal for this algae? What is dark green vs yellow green?
I have a lot of gunk on bottom of my 3/4 Gallon tank. How can I clean without sucking up or killing the opae?
I don’t want snails, can’t get just one seems like they multiply.
Thanks

A turkey baster and a fine mesh fish net can work well for cleaning. You can suck up gunk, release it in the net, and the water will return to the tank through the mesh.

By all accounts from the Forum and from Mustafa his snails don't over populate, they keep my substrate remarkably clean, it might be something you consider.

Yes, don't suck up anything. Just get the snails, they won't overpopulate if you follow the feeding instructions here.
