Smart Mouth suggestion for controlling Brown Algae

:-) One way that I have found to discourage Brown Algae is to remove all the
water from tank :-)
:-) Brown algae seems to get very discouraged when there is no water :-)

Hi everyone:
My question is this has anyone conquered the dreaded brown alge.

I have a lot of bare tanks with sponge filters with pairs of
angelfish one pair per 20 gal tank. I do weekly water changes of 25 to 50
present I wipe down side walls & bottom every 2 weeks to get rid of brown
alge. Lights are on 8 to 12 hours a day. any ideas on how to discourage the
stuff .       Lee
