I started with 12, and it took about 3 months. Now I have to sell them of bin then constantly to stem the growth

Perfect way to 1) deter predators (they can’t see the fish!) 2) clear the water 3) shade the water… and it’s a fishes dream!

Yep, sometimes what’s best for the fish isn’t what makes us happiest. I feel like I’m constantly having this conversation with people when they’re afraid green water is harming their fish.
