My research have started

I have started reding up on algae control and found out that there are 3 different basic ways of controling algae. There is the biological method, the mechanical method and the chemical method. The chemical methods involves using chemicls to prevent algae growth and I am going to avoid using this method as possible as it can have negative effects on plants. The mechanical method involves filtering algae from the water. The biological method is the method that appeals to me the most at the moment. It involves making sure that you keep good water quality to limit algae growth an dusing algae eating animals to combat the algae. There are many types of algae eating animals suitable for the tropical fish tank including algae eating shrimps, fish and snails. I am of to research a suitable species for my tank now.
