Water change, and weeding, and reorganizing the Xenia.

Performed a 2.5gal water change.

Removed another pint of algea, mostly the brown kelp. Removed a lot on the stalk that housed a few Xenia stalks. One had already moved to the rock, and another was on its way. I was able to relocate two stalks by stuffing the attached algea into holes in the top rock; hopefully this last until the stalks have a chance to attach to the rock.

Bought a Sav-on/Osco Simply Clean "premium heavy duty latex gloves" to help remove the much of the small sections of "bristle" algea (presumed pest). This is where the bristle worm had been seen so the gloves would also be protective.
