Strange green on aquarium plant?

My aquarium is running very well, and the animals and plants are doing well, but one of my plants has a strange green stuff growing on its leaves? Does anyone know what this is and if it's serious?

Hello,

these are unfortunately not algae, but they are only so, in fact they are cyanobacteria and not blue algae

Unfortunately, there is no universal remedy against it, because what helps in one is completely ineffective in another basin, but it often affects small changes!

To the extent not yet, however, would take countermeasures!

Excerpt from this:

You may see that it is initially a small spot of green algae that eventually develops into a thick mucus that spreads over your gravel, your decorations and your plants. While cyanobacteria in aquariums are normally not harmful to fish, they may kill your plants if their leaves are covered and no light can be image synthesized.

Apply 3% hydrogen peroxide, depending on the pelvic volume in L., with a spray and spray small amounts onto the cyanobacteria.

Precise amount must be decided for itself. in no case overdosed.

Within a short time they should “resolve” themselves, etc.

“Easy Carbo” or similar products can also work well. This works best with a 1:10 mixture of 1 part carbo 10 parts of water in a spray bottle, then drain water and spray all “loaded” places.

But Carbo is not overdosed either.

Algae are that! Either you feed too much or your light is too long.

It’s best to put 2-3 amanogarnels in it that eats it.

No, they’re not algae, they’re cyanobacteria!

No, the amanogarnels don’t go to cyanos, they don’t graze at all.
As a group animal, I would rather use 5+ of the animals as a plaster column, with me there are 17 pieces (on 180l) and the whistle around very much as a loose pack.
