Is it a new setup? Usually, for the first 1-2 months, there's no need to add fertilizers. Also, your plants are not mature enough at this early stage to absorb so much fertilizers. So the algae bursts.

Like that i stop adding fertiliser....
Other than fertiliser, what else should i improve?

Clean all those algae and keep changing 15%-20% of water everyday for 2 weeks. See if the growth of algae can be controlled. Try to identify the type of algae that you have and seek proper diagnosis. At the same time, add more plants to your tank to build up the balance. And also place some fast-growing plants (no need to put them in the soil) to absorb excessive fertilizers, such as 蜈蚣草, 菊花草...etc. Forget about the Brighty K unless you've found your tank lacking of potassium.

Hope this helps.

thanks a lots...
I have started to change water daily already, hope can get rid of the algae...
The algae type in my tank is丝藻，found that my SAE dont like to eat at all...
Maybe i should try yamato, but just worry yamato will pull out my hairgrass...
Should i reduce the light source? I mean the period of lighting....

1. Keep changing water;
2. Use more Yamato, at least 5;
3. Stop applying any fertilizers;
4. Add fast-growing plants to absorb excessive fertilizers;
5. Stop over feed your fish, SAE will not eat the hair algae if they have other choice;
6. You may keep the lighting for the meantime and see if the above work.

Excel is no magic and should not be used for killing String Algae.

I also thinking of use excel, but is the final step la...
Now try the manual way to clean it first, unless no more choice only consider excel...

Don't use Excel to kill 丝藻. There's no use.

16"缸，照比例都係8-9"高，36w燈，似乎光左d，如果個濾水弱，光照長，咁唔生藻有鬼。
其實一時三刻生藻，一d都唔奇，天氣變、新草入缸，都會影響草既生長，抵抗力弱左，d藻就會隨住d草生，一味落藥，影響水質，會適得其反。
藻唔係問題，最重要係穩定水質，等d草盡快適應，一生定左，百藻不侵。
如果係絲藻，你試下換1/3水，封缸3日，要一d光都冇，3日後再換1/4水，停肥，光照6小時，穩定翻先加光加肥。

依家已经无加肥啦。。。似乎无O甘严重左啦。。。
日日都有换水1/3O既水。。。
