I have a 10 gallon fish tank and it is growing algae. What can I do to keep this from happening? I have 3 catfish, 2 danios, and 5 other fish. Please help. Thank you.

There is a product that helps control algae called something like 'algae be gone' you can get at fish/pet stores. There is also a special rough sponge set that is magnetized. The sponge side goes on the glass inside of the tank and the magnetized side on the glass outside of the tank and you just move the magnet and sponge around to clean the algae off of the glass. I would highly recommend using both products (years ago I had four fish tank of assorted sizes).
We have a bit larger tank. We found cleaning the tank, then adding more oxygen really helped. Just bought those oxygen tubes and placed them along the back of the tank.
