Salutations. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner... my DSL is down. I had to dig my old modem out and dust it off. Anyhow, I'll offer as much help as possible (I read a lot... and that is my 1st suggestion for you). As far as the algae, there is plenty (I clean the glass every day). Good cleaners help too. But you're right about the water... try to keep it as clear as possible. I have AOL "DWoodbury" or you may email at djwoodbury@earthlink.net. Always happy to help if I can.
PS-For those of you that sent me messages about wanting a "DJ" for a party... I'm not a party DJ. In fact, I'm only named DJ.

As far as the lighting goes... depends on what you want to have in your tank. I've had everything from flourscent lights to MH 400 watt lamps... I'm not on AOL all that much... send me an email if you can and I'll try to get online when a time is good for you.
DJ :D
