Brown algae is very common in a newly set up tank. Just keep wiping it off and scraping the glass feed a little less and it will eventually go away on its own. Do not use any chemicals or cleaners as they are toxic to your fish. Never change all of your filter at one time either as this will remove your benificial bacteria that you need . Just rinse it in tank water that you remove during water changes that should be 25% done weekly. The best way to do this is with a gravel vacumn that will clean the gravel as you remove the water for the change . Never remove the fish when you do the tank cleaning as it is more stressfull for them to be moved than it is to just go ahead and clean ..just be careful you don't vacumn them up. ( It is not easy to catch a healthy fish like that so don't worry and don't panic if you do catch one...it won't hurt them. Always use declorinated water the same temps what the tank is. There are fish out there that will eat this brown slimy algae also...hilllstream loaches will eat it . Be carefull when you buy a pleco as someone else recommended as they eat green algae and are a great addition to a tank but some of them can grow to 18 inches or so ..make sure you get a smaller breed . Ottocinculas ( not sure how it is spelled but peeps in the fish trade will know if you ask for an otto) will eat this brown algae and stay very small ..about an inch or so. Good luck.

Yes. Ask your pet store for the scuba elf model. It comes with your own scuba elf who lives in the tank with the fishies. Every night, he comes out of his castle and cleans the walls. By day, he cooks meals for the fish with food delivered weekly to the tank. You need to back up a little truck to the loading dock in the back of the tank but he also feeds the fish gourmet meals. The paper work for the truck deliveries comes with the kit and the first year is half price. But you'll have to unload the food yourself as the swimsters union is on strike and dock workers are picketing right now.
