    What fish to get clean?

    It would be worth your time and money to buy a RO/DI unit. I think they sell them on this site, if not you can get one on line.

    Green hair Algae

    You need about 1 snail per gal. Also you need to use RO/DI water for top ups and water changes. do a 10 or 15% water change every week untill you get things under control. Lights should be changed at least every 12 months. Feed every other day.
