I forgot, I think I don't have enough waterflow I have only 1 jet it's a rio 3100

I take my water sample to the LFS (personal friend works there, doesn't cost anything when he tests for me ;) ) Anyway, I'm not good at testing myself, So as I said, everything tested exactly how it's supposed to. That's why we're stumped as to why the algae problem. I have crushed coral...

Help!! I have a hair algae problem! I tried using "Marine S.A.T. but it doesn't seem to be doing the job. I have checked the phosphates and other stuff and can't seem to figure out the problem. I had this problem once before and found out I didn't have enough crabs. I don't think that's the...
