    I have red algae all over my tank..on glass nad sand. Is there anything i can put in there that will eat it? A clean up crew?  If not how do i get rid of it. Hoping something will take care of it.

    How long has your tank been running? If it's in the early stages(month 1 or so), this is normal.
