Algae Outbreak
Hi Everyone,
I have a big problem with algae that started three weeks ago.
I'm confused whether it is dino or other types of algae. It's been growing like crazy, covering up my rock, substrate, but not glass and back of the tank.
All my livestocks, blue tang and two clownfish, and corals seem fine so far.
Here are my water parameters:
Anomonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 5
Phosphate: 0.25
I've started activated carbon today (Aquaforest), and have been dosing Red Sea Nopox for more than a week.
I have a fitersock and a protein skimmer in my sum.
Please refer to the photos and PLEASE PLEASE advise.
Thanks and really apreaciate all your advices.
P/S: My tank is 3 and half months old, and is fully cycled.
