My tank is doing ok except algae (mostly red) problem. I vacuum a sand bed every week with my water (30%) change. As much as i remember from my old days with fresh water aquarium i thought i know how to do this. Wrong.
I have always vacuum everything from top to bottom. All sand got a good vacuum cleaning and then it was returned back to the ground. Now i see i should just vacuum the top and nothing else.
I was probably lifting huge amount of nutrients in the water every time and that was great for algae?
