Tank: Red Sea Reefer 250 with V3 sump
refugium light: Tunze Eco chic refugium LED. Running for 12 hours overnight.
Marine Pure ceramic biomedia spheres in refugium
Algae Barn green Chaeto
I started a refugium in my sump about 4 weeks ago. Unlike pictures and videos I have seen on line with a bright green large ball of Chaeto and a very clean refugium, my Chaeto is slimy and dark green. The walls of the refugium are getting coated with hair algae. The exposed ceramic biospheres which once were white are now brownish black. The display tank still looks very good; No algae and I am having to scrape the glass far less frequently. What am I doing wrong?
