Its not so much on the lights although lighting duration does play a part for the algae growth. Pay more attention on the purity of your water. Lower the nutrients and all types of algaes will disappear too.

for my tank i have quite high no3

but i control its spread but using very strong flowrate provided by tunze and rowaphos in fr

upgrading skimmer will dfinitely help since it skims out no3

i'm so successful they dun even appear anywhere

u can ask borinz or muarchee how clean my sand and liverocks are

wah...haha i on a tight budget lah so got to get equiments one at a time for now i think i will settle wit a fr first... haaa

i suspect those are not algea. i think those are red slime. formed by bacteria. i do have those on my glass.

use medication to get rid of it. like red slime remover. lower ur nutrient level and upgrade ur skimmer.

good luck
