Re: Algea growth but high nitrates

They've been in the tank for about 5 days, they seem to be doing good. They are all looking pink or red, and are already cleaning the algea from their favorite spots!

I have had the tank set up for about 4 weeks. There is a layer of algea on everything, as well as a film on the water ...
