Victoria Killer Algae maybe? I now clean the glass on my tanks a 1/4 a day I'm so freaked!

Wow! That's crazy and doesn't make any sense at all. I hope it never comes to that!

Here's a pic if that helps. I had to make the scrubber even higher than what it is now too. This was before I started using it too.
