It's slimy, it's nasty, and it's in your aquarium! If you've ever been struck with slime algae, you know how difficult it can be to get rid of. Don't expect your algae eaters to do it for you, this type of algae isn't on their menu. Here is how to get rid of slime algae.

I had an issue with this in my 180 gal. Turns out I was dosing with too much c02. Within 3 days of me reducing the c02 to 1-3 bubbles per second the algae disappeared. It had previously been all over EVERYTHING and had caused me immense manual cleansing efforts.
Hope this helps someone!
