I'm having a bit of an algae outbreak in my tank. I believe it is just GHA but I would like a second opinion. Can anyone ID this algae? Is it GHA or Bryopsis or something else?
The tank is 6 months old, here are the current parameters:
PO4: 0.09
NO3: 0.4
CA: 420
MG: 1500
DKH: 8.8
Manually remove as much as possible and get your cleanup crew in order. Half of what reefcleaners recommends is a good starting point. My personal favorite though (per 50 gallons) is 5-10 nassarius, 10 hermits, 5 zebra hermit, 10 cerith, 4 trochus, 1 mexican turbo. Over 75 gallons and fully stocked i also add 1 tuxedo urchin, 1 tiger conch, 1 emerald.
