Product Information

Green & Away is both a sustainable events venue and an environmental education charity, and as such, we would like you to help keep us up to date on current sustainability topics, as well as helping educate our guests and volunteers. Inspect potatoes before purchasing them to ensure they have not been damaged or have already started greening. Potatoes turn green when they are exposed to sunlight or damaged. The green pigment comes from chlorophyll. Sunlight can also cause potatoes to produce the toxin solanine. Is it OK to eat green Yukon Gold potatoes?

As you might have guessed, this makes a polishing pad the perfect tool for removing that green tint from your aquarium water.As a Marketing and Social Media intern you will help us expand our reach and increase awareness of the charity. You will be responsible for designing and implementing marketing campaigns and strategies as well as creating and sharing social media content. As part of this role you will be able to learn about aspects of running a successful charity and events venue and how marketing can be used to help us reach our charitable aims and new audiences. Another common mistake is using a light that is too strong for your aquarium. Seriously, I have seen grow-lights installed on tanks with fake plants! Green & Away tries to be accessible for all, please see our Access Statement for details. Charity and Education You will work closely with, and be supported by, our Coordinator, and learn the intricacies of both running a charity and managing a successful events venue. In just a few days, the phytoplankton responsible for your green aquarium water will start to die off. The result? Crystal-clear aquarium water.

We provide all of the tools and materials you’ll need, including gloves. There will be a briefing at the start of the day so you don’t need to prepare anything in advance.

Before use: remove any loose debris from the work area, and ensure you have adequate safety wear, i.e. gloves, suitable protective eye-wear, face mask & clothing. Below, I show you four solutions that are commonly used to treat green aquarium water. Best of all, these products actually work! 1. UV sterilizer Apply a flood coat, spraying in a sweeping motion across the surface. A second pass may be necessary to ensure complete coverage. This causes light-skinned potatoes to change from yellow or light brown to green. This process also occurs in darker-skinned potatoes, although dark pigments may disguise it. Your fish will also thank you for adding Daphnia to the aquarium. Many fish, such as betta and tetra, find Daphnia a delicious treat!

Solanine also causes a bitter flavor. If cooked potatoes taste bitter or cause a burning sensation in your mouth or throat, this can indicate high solanine levels, even if the potato does not look green ( 2, 4). Summary As water flows through this device, it is exposed to UV light. This UV light kills any microscopic organisms that are floating in the water, such as bacterial blooms and phytoplankton. It’s when these phytoplankton get together in a large group that you first notice them in your aquarium. Fortunately, with a simple modification, your filter can turn into a green-water trapping machine – all you need is a polishing pad.The same goes for plants. While the algae that makes up green aquarium water feeds on many of the same nutrients that your plants do, it shouldn’t cause any direct harm. What causes green aquarium water? Wouldn’t it be great if someone else could get rid of your green aquarium water for you? If you are nodding your head, then get yourself some Daphnia.
