I stopped using carbon when I learned that it can contribute to HLLE in tangs, and my tangs had symptoms of that....So when I had this green water issue I put a small hob filter on my tank and ran carbon for a few days
have you tested your nitrates or your phosphates....I also used a phosphate pad.
they are slightly elevated but not out of control.

I would probably concentrate on getting rid of those levels...Like I said the carbon and phosphate pad worked for me

With a 180g you might have to do some rather large water changes. I would start doing some 30-40g water changes every 2-3 days and make sure you leave it inside this time. It maybe something from outside that got in that water since it was uncovered. IMO it has to do with that water that was left outside. Cant do a full water change without effecting something or killing your ray. Its going to take several water changes to clear that up.
