paul b May 15, 2012 Share May 15, 2012 It seems that there are so many people in this hobby that are stressed every time they see something either growing or just appearing in their tanks. I figured I would post things that over the years just went away with no help from me. Hair algae. I have no idea when I took this picture but it must have been at least 15 years ago. That fireclown is stil with me and he is almost 18 now, but look at all the hair algae. The fish and corals were in great shape, but the tank looked horrible. It left on it's own like it always does About 2 years ago I had so many flatworms that I could not find any rock that was not covered in them. Everyone was urgeing me to use "Flatworm Exit" IN about 6 months, every one of them disappeared. I didn't use anything. Last year I noticed one tiny spot of this bubble algae. Everyone said I had to remove it immediately or it would cover everything in the tank and the tank would crash. Much of it has died off and it is only on a couple of rocks. I like the stuff and think it is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extreme_tooth_decay May 15, 2012 Share May 15, 2012 How long do you think it will take the bottle to go away on its own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul b May 15, 2012 Author Share May 15, 2012 I guess as long as it takes for the can to go away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extreme_tooth_decay May 15, 2012 Share May 15, 2012 I guess as long as it takes for the can to go away Hm, I predict the can will be gone before the bottle... Unless you invite one of those Indian glass eaters over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incredible Corals May 15, 2012 Share May 15, 2012 I always set my beer on the euro bracing on my tank at home and wonder what will happen if I knock it in. Now I know nothing will happen . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicSG May 15, 2012 Share May 15, 2012 wow bottle and can, is it okay for the water quality? Sorry question coz i was always told rust and foreign objects can be harmful. Am i reading wrong. Just very curious. I love the theme though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul b May 15, 2012 Author Share May 15, 2012 (edited) There are about 8 bottles in there but no foreign objects, all of those bottles are American (the can is aluminum and is coated with fiberglass resin) Hasen't hurt the water quality yet.
