Default Re: Is this Algae?

If snipping doesn't control it enough, or if it's getting around in too many places, consider yanking and doing a potassium permanganate dip, you can find it at hardware stores. Easier on you plants than chlorox dip. You'll need to think about what the root cause is though. Consider adding a lot of fast growing stem plants to compete with the algae for nutrients.
