Green algae help

[scs88]

hi guys..

need some help on solving this algae outbreak in my tank!

tks

its quite hard to pluck of off the rocks and my rocks cannot be taken out to wash..

A yellow tang or sea hare might help

[scs88]

already had yellow tang but doesnt seem to be eating it

does sea hare feast on this?

[peacemaker]

It is too long. You need to manually remove them and the sea hare should take care of the rest. Then again, you might be better off with a sally light foot crab.

try to reduce your nutrient. if not it will come back week after week even if you manage to clean it all up.

Tink 1st thing is to save a ur corals 1st, inspect individual corals if

It's free from the algae. Same thing happened 2 me a yr ago,

it needs abit of hair to grow into a bush,

Den u start to do the rest like water change etc..

watch ur nutrients

Peacemaker is right.

You need to remove all the long green algae ny hand.

Abalone and sea hair help but you need a few of them

Turbo snail also can.

Hi,

I keep one of those short-spined sea urchins n it really strip the coral-based rocks to the core but doesn't harm the mushies or the live corals. On the other hand my

foxface lo does his part to earn the right to live in my tank.

Brushing or pulling off the algae will help them to spread faster (my opinion ).

Reefing should be enjoyable,

Finbir.

yupz. concur with the fatbike

test and see your NO3 and PO4.

good if it is kept at a minimum

Hi bro, save your corals first.

I had this problem when I first started, you can try what I did.

Buy a plastic tub, link it to your sump and grow algae in it. Slowly the algae in the main tank should die off.

You should try bio pellets too!

Food release the highest amount

of Po 4 into the water

Maybe can check ur feeding ?
