Long time viewer, first time posting. First of all I would to thank everyone here for all the advice you gave others, it has also helped me a lot. So, I'm dealing with a green algae outbreak at the moment. The algae has pretty much covered every rock, all the sand, and I'm cleaning the glass at least twice a day. There is also a pretty foul smell that is coming from the tank.
The tank is about 3 months old. I have 2 black clownish, 3 green chromis, 1 cleaner shrimp, 10 blue legged hermits, and 3 big snails. As far as coral I only have a small work with about 10 mushrooms, which are doing great.
Water parameters as followed- ammonia-0, nitrite-0, nitrate-5-10, phosphate-0-.25, alkalinity-8dkh, calcium-360.
My setup is a 76 Gallon aquarium. In the display tank I have about 100-150 lbs live rock, with aragonite sand. I have a 30 gallon refugium with 20 lbs of miracle mud, 2 softball size pieces of chaeto, and about 10 pounds live rock. I'm running 2 ecotech marine radion xr30w for lighting, which is on 10 hours a day. I have 2 jebao rw8 for flow. Reef octopus protien skimmer. Eheim 1262 return pump. Just added a BRS carbon/GFO reactor.
Thanks in advance for all the opinions, and advice on to remove and keep away the green algae. Look forward to hear from you guys!
