      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I have taken over a tank which has an infestation of brown hair algae and diatoms, which is rampant. It grows incredibly fast and looks like large brown dust or tumbleweed. I use a turkey baster to blow it off of plants and substrate and then vacuum it out of the tank. I&#039;m doing water changes and lowering the lighting but it&#039;s a very persistent algae. Photos and updates shortly.]]></content:encoded>
