Hi,
I recently moved my tank from my old house to my new house right after doing so I encountered a hair algea problem. I upgraded my lights to the CoralLife Metal Hilide (2x 20k 250w) Power Compact (2 x 96w) combo hood and the problem got worse.
I've taken my water to get tested at my local Salt Fish store experts and all levels were good except my alkalinity and calcium levels were slightly low (which I am in the process of uping it).
I have ~12-14 Tiger Turbo Snails, ~15-20 hermit crabs (mix of the bloot foot and red), Tuxedo Urchin, Sea Hair (although I havent seen him recently) from clean up crew. I have a pretty nice size Squirlfish, Sailfin Tang, Chrismas Wrasse, Lawmower Blenny.
My Tank is a 90g with a 30g sump.
I am jsut looking for some opinons on how to stop the growth, and start getting rid of what is already there.
I've attached some pictures.
Thanks,
-Scott
