I'm not talking about how algae spores or organisms or whatever can be found in the air or water, but I'd like to know under what conditions does algae grow? They must need something to grow. I'm not getting a lot of algae in my tank for my algae-eater and was wondering what seems to be the common denominators in people's tanks that have algae problems. I'd like to be able to grow a little algae in my tank for my algae eaters, you know.
