⚠️PAY ATTENTION

Added: 2026-05-17

[00:00:00]Pay attention. This will save you years of frustration. I got algae, you got algae, he got algae, she got algae. We got algae. What causes algae? High light. What do we have? A greenhouse, full sunlight. What do we also have?

[00:00:13]High fish loads. Here's the rub. I absolutely love the fish in this basin right here. What we have in this basin here is a bunch of glowing, bright colored, easy to see on a black basin danios. And not only do they look sweet, they're not that big, but they're making babies like crazy. So, I have a high light load, and then I have a low plant load cuz we were selling plants out of this, and then now I have all these fish, and the fish are doing great, but the fish are also making more fish. So, I have algae. And by the way, the baby fish love the algae. So, I'm having to get the algae out of here, so I don't know what to do. What do I do? Do I keep the tank like it is? The baby fish eat off the algae, eat the stuff that lives in the algae. In general, like these fish seem to be enjoying it, but simultaneously, you know, I need this real estate to slang some plants out of.

[00:01:02]Ain't nobody want algae on their plants, you know what I'm saying? So, I am in a interesting spot with this because it's really like good real estate here in the greenhouse to grow plants, but it's also producing baby fish.
