The water in my aquarium keeps turnin green WHY, what can be done2007-11-24 23:41:07Answers:

nine times out of ten all that is wrong is that you are getting too much light hitting the water either from windows or the overhed light. protect the sides of the aquarium that is facing windows if at the sides by using decorative covering. if the light is coming directly in front of the tank, move the tank to a shadier area. Only turn on the aquarium light when you are enjoying the fish like in the evening and turn it off when you go to bed. LIGHT GROWS ALGAE and that is what the green stuff is

buy one of those fish that suck the walls of the aquarium they eat the algea and make sure the water pump is working properly with the filter

---

an algae eater, such as a plecco will work wonders in your tank,, theyll have it clean in no time

---

make sure the tank is not in sunshine

How often do you masturbate in your fish tank?

You might not be doing it enough. I read in Bill O'Reilly's children's book "THE FACTOR FOR KIDS" that it is good to do that to regulate the bacteria.

That is algea.Grows from the lighting, could turn out the light or move away from the window. But if you have live plants they need the light. So you cold get an algea eater to put in there or snails will help keep it clean also.

change the filter you using to abetter one or change the type of fish which live in green water

You have an algae problem. Getting rid of algae is not that difficult but can be frustrating.
