Ok I have a feeling you guys are right and the blue bulbs ARE for salt water. Hahaha wow. Well I will turn those off. And no I do not do C02 injections. I don't know if I want to do that... And whats even more sad is I do not know the names of my plants. But I do know that almost all of them have new starts on them. I have 2 java fern with babies growing
and let me see if I can find the names...ok well I googled all of those plants and I haven't tried any of them except for the Hornwort. That one really didnt do well. It turned brown and got so covered in algae it fell over
. But the ones that are doing good are

Do you think water changes would have something to do with this algae? I could do a test and we could find out! Also do my plecos just not eat this type of algae? Its thick, green, and spiderwebs all over the tank.
