Stop Worrying and Learn How to Love Staghorn Algae?

[mchambers]

It is now in a few of my tanks, mostly entangling plants, like the base of some crypts. Here's a picture showing the stuff in some subwassertang.

Kris Weinhold's page on algae has a picture that makes me think this is in fact staghorn. He suggests that the main way to combat it is manual removal, which is tedious. Any creative ideas? Should I just pretend it is a desirable plant and stop worrying?

Amano shrimp.

I actually love the stuff because it feels cool.

Learn to love it.

Thanks for posting this! Great movie that holds up surprisingly well a half century later.

Peter Sellers, playing at least three roles!

Classic political satire.
Sellers played Dr. Strangelove, the president, and a British exchange officer.

I believe he also played, uncredited, the Coke machine.
