	Beneficial Algae?
coltsfan Hobbyist Posts: 106 Kudos: 75 Votes: 6 Registered: 11-Jul-2007	I was wondering if there is ever a time when algae is good for the tank? I don't mean algae all over the place but just a little on a rock or something.

They really eat a lot of it so if I ever scrape any, it's just on the front glass to help me see in better. 29g - 5 Head and Tail Light Tetras, 1 Black Phantom Tetra, 1 melanistius cory, 1 Featherfin Synodontis, 1 otto 29g - 14 harlequin rasboras, 5 albino corys, 3 ottos 10g - 1 glowlight tetra, 2 Black phantom tetras, 1 red betta on entertainment center
