- In this video of Hillstream aquarium (Algae-scape) we will see all the algae I got during first 4 weeks. Blue green algae (Cyanobacteria) is the only algae I didn't want to get but unfortunately I got it in this low tech shallow tank. Watch the video to see how I got rid of BGA in just 7 days. Will it come back? Remains to be seen.

The algae or bacteria spores are basically everywhere, so we don't need to bring them from other aquariums. Most likely they are already in the water, air, and other surfaces. Give them the right condition and sooner or later they will appear and bloom. So my opinion is that you just got to the cyanobacteria problem sooner, but you definitely would have arrived there.
I fully agree with you. The fact that BGA spores were already in the filter just made things easier. Pozdrav
I am trying a planted tank for the first time and have been nervous about it because I do not usually do well with plants. But I feel like whatever could go wrong has gone wrong. A few days ago, I saw the BGA. I had no idea what it was and when I started researching it, well, I am stressed! I have seen several videos about getting rid of BGA but yours is my favorite by far. Your instructions are very clear and your take is stunning to look at, but you also included very mellow music and some really lovely shots of your aquarium. It was calming, informative, and encouraging. Thank you for sharing it.
Have fun with your tank. And I can tell you even after years of owning the aquariums I still have the feeling that whatever could go wrong will go wrong. I guess you just learn how to deal with it. I am glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers
In my tanks, BGA appears in areas with stagnant flow and where natural light filters in (usually on the front of the glass right by the substrate line). But I have also seen it in your case, in higher flow if the conditions are right. It's definitely not pleasant to look at and it does smell. Happy you found a solution. Take care.
Solution for now, lets see how it goes. I had it in aquariums with both high and low flow.
Can't wait for Hillstream loaches to be added.
They are coming soon. But first; next video I will add a new fish.
Good job … hope it stays away.
I also hope, it really looked bad.
Hello, i had the same issue than you, i think BGA came from a lack of No3 and too much Po4... Removed it by balance No3 and Po4 AND a treatment with Ultralife.... Let's hope it won't come back for you and me. Fingers crossed!
Yeah I think the same thing happened in this aquarium. Lets see how the things will develop in the future.
Does it say on the box what the active ingredient is in the UltraLife?
Oh how I hated those algae in the pond...
I hate them anywhere I see them.
Interesting video. Does anyone know what the active ingredient is in this Ultra Life Blue Green Algae Remover? Thank you.
Only thing I know is that it raises GH of the water and kills BGA. I was unable to find active ingredients.
@@IMaqua Ok, I'll continue to search to satisfy my curiosity and if I find something I'll let you know. Thanks.
@@ivancho5854 thanks, you can let me know here in the comments.
What the caniter filter type name
The filter used in this video is Aquael Ultramax 1000.
Thank you 😊
You are welcome.
But has it come back?
No it didn't. I never had issues later on. This aquarium is almost 1 year old and I published a video of it recently.
Really pleased. Thank you.
You are welcome.
I have plenty of algae if you want it?🇦🇺❤️
Yes please, algae are always welcome to this aquarium. All except BGA.
Lol when you visit Australia I’ll let you take it al!🇦🇺❤️
@@IMaqua
