I guess I got...
An algae culture. I went to do a w/c and my crayfish tank is full of green algae. I have been wanting an algae culture for my africans but hadn't had the time. Is is alright for the crayfish to have a bunch of algae in there with him? It is the bright green algae so I think thats the good kind right?

Sometimes I honestly think some algae adds to making a tank look more natural. I have some growing on the top of some driftwood in the coldwater tank and I think it looks pretty cool.
