Look at that beautious stargrass.. The tank is definitely coming along. I think everyone has initial algae problems lasting until the tank grabs hold of plant life and starts to run with it.

Perhaps, as with freshwater planteds, we should focus on planting heavily right from the start. The ten gallon tank I did heavily plant initially, only had a small diatom bloom, never had cyano, and only broke out in uncontrollage green algae when the phosphates went too high from accidental dosings. Hmm. Food for thought at least.

Dave, keep up the good work!
