Green Water Vs. Carpet Algae Options

[nobnoba]

Are green water and Carpet Algae works the same way? ie. processing Ammonia to harmless nitrogen?

I am trying to find the best combination of both world. Since green water is excellent for water condition and goldfish growth and color but it makes owners see their lovely pets once a week!

My thinking is, if carpet algae works the same was as green water, then we could allow our tank to be covered by algae, have excellent water condition and yet can see the fish!

Rational goal, no?

Aquaplantae, solid knowledge ! You are getting the correct stuff.
Unicelluar vs multicelluar .... few thousands variations to talk about.

anyway, the root system of plant has special function n enyzme to store and stripe of the complex nitrogens to simple form with other minerals before delivering to the stalk and leaves thus result in releasing O ions into water as by-products.

Lawrence, in a cloudy day, not hovering dark clouds, the temperature will be around 6000 kelvins. that's enough to make the green works. however, photosynthesis does not immediately start, rather the organisms require to absorb sufficient energy first. usually within 30 mins.

tehehehehe, thanks.

this maybe true for terrestrial plants, as they utilize nitrogen from earth by their roots. but for aquatic plants, almost all of their body parts can utilize nutrients from water body. so water plants can use their body parts to take up nutrients and release their photosynthesis byproduct o2. this is due to the supply of nitrogen in the water, not in the substrate. as for some of the aquatic plants, their root is only acting as an anchoring device. while their stalk and leaf is the one to collect nutrients.

actually, when we're talking about cloudy sky here, the important factor is not the color spectrum, but rather the lux/lumens (light intensity). all across the earth, the color spectrum on the equatorial is between 5000-6500 kelvin. so whether it's cloudy or not the color spectrum still fall in those range. i've just read up baensch aquarium atlas vol 1, in page 46, it's stated about light intensity:
-. daylight in clear sky is about 75000 lux
-. plants in nature get about 9500-38000 lux
-. surface plants in aquarium get about 2400-4800 lux
-. plants in middle tank range; lower light requirement limit get about 300-1200 lux
-. cryptocoryne and other plants requiring little light, adaptable plants get about 75-150 lux
-. algae could even utilize light as low as 50 lux (not stated in the book)
