Okay so I have a fake silk plant that has black beard algae all over it. I have tried washing it in the dishwasher twice (two different settings and placements), and now it’s soaking in a bowl of bleach. How do I get this stuff off? It’s like glue I swear.

I have a tank with mollies and have found two worms wiggling in the tank. They are at least one inch long and red. I was thinking they were anchor worms but I have yet to see any actually attached to my fish. I added aquarium salt and raised the temp. I read this is […]
