2feet Aquatic PTS 5.0 - *FAILED*

It's been months trying to find nerite snails to placate my algae problems. These days, I grow algaes it seems!! :P Thanks to the fact the our weather has been previously hot and the change in the sun's position... my tank has not been getting enough light at all! hence the bad bloom of algaes! Name 'em and i'd probably have them at this stage!! lol :P 

Even with extra CO2, insufficient light'd causes the glosso to reach for the sky! Notice the driftwood behind, they're all totally covered with staghorns and even the blackbeard's blooming!

Only thing stopping me from tearing the entire setup down is that unfortunately, i don't have the time and i'm also currently using this tank as a nursing bay for a cichlid suffering from intestinal problems! The other good thing about growing algaes, especially good healthy green staghorns is that i get to supplement my cichlids with greens! Omnivoures that they are, i'm hoping this would keep their diet on the healthier side...

And people ask me why I take photos of the aquarium at night... Obviously it's a mess, lol! Alas, till the sun comes back up proper, i'd have to make do... or tear the entire thing down again, sigh....
