and for distilled buying water to water change a 55 gallon tank will kill my parents
Zeke i had the same problem in my reef and everyone said buy a RO or distilled, that didn't go over well with my parents either.
Then someone recommended PURA Phoslock i tried it and it killed 90% of the hair algea so i got some mexican turbos and emerald crabs and they keep it under control. I also take of as much as i can manually and fan the dirt of the LR. IDK if it will work for you because your tap water could be way different from mine (apparently ours is pretty good) But definitely get some emerald crabs, they are the only things i've actually seen eating it. good luck
