Hi All...
On August of 2008 i receive a couple strands of Aldrovanda from a dear friend "thanks again bro" and when they just started to establish in sept they were massively attacked by algae it took me almost 1 and a half month to clear those algae and my Aldrovanda have just recover from it...
Here is the glazed 25" clay pot i have setup 3 month before i receive those beautiful Aldrovanda which i use peat and sand as base...
Here is the Aldrovanda which have just recovered...
A close up picture of it...
Here i would like to share the method i use to clear those slimy algae...
Firstly i overflow the whole pot for 3min(which is around 30% water change) every 2 days(for 1 and a half month) with rain water and i have added 1 Zebra Pelicos and 4 black molly together with 6 Yamato shrimp shrimp into the pot... i'm not sure weather those Yamato are still there but those house keeper molly and pelicos are surely doing a good job...
for now i do 30% water change every week to help keep the nutrient level low...
Thanks for your time reading this...
Regards
Jonathan
