Hi all! I am new to the forum, excited to learn more! I have a 100+ gallon aquarium with a few swords, giant hair grass, java ferns, 3 crypts and 1 Anubis. It seems overnight bba exploded in my tank. I already have 3 plecos but what other algae eaters, safe to use with ciclids, could I add to help combat the algae? I’ve been doing weekly water changes. Any other recommendations?

Check your feeding amount to control nutrients going in. Lower your light a bit. 
 

Easy carbon and flourish excel are (were) algicides, but won’t fix your main issues above.

bba is difficult and I still don’t have 100% control over it. Consistency seems to be key.

Hope that helps some.
