Im going to share with you my ALGEA DISASTER! I have the great new frags in my Reef Tank. They have been over run with Algae because of several factors. 1) Over Feeding an Aquarium 2) Not Enough Flow 3) Not Having a Good Protein Skimmer 4) To Much Light 5)Not Enough Live Rock 6)Not Enough Beneficial Bacteria that Lives in Live Rock 7)Not Enough Clean Up Crew Such as Snails and even Fish Heres what I did, follow a long, it really did work REALLY REALLY GOOD!

The Elite Reef Thanks Appreciate it! Thanks for the support

Aquatic Angler - 7 years ago

Dang, I wish my tank was big enough for tangs

915Mang - 7 years ago

Aquatic Angler I love Nanos, but yeah. Tangs Did the trick!

915Mang - 7 years ago

Reefer Reef Cyano needs more flow, you can also siphon it out. Also cut back on some of the food, unless your tank is new

dangappa - 7 years ago

Try switching to vodka dosing. Vinegar lowers your PH and vodka is more concentrated so you need less of it. It can also give the water a sweet smell after a while and the water is clean. Just don't do it too fast and give a foothold to cyano or dino's.

915Mang - 7 years ago

dangappa Thanks for the Information. I dont use a lot of vinegar, but maybe Ill try that. Walmart vinegar is a deal!

MileHighReefers - 7 years ago
