Alright, here's my deal. I have a 10g nano w/:
10 lbs. LR
20 lbs. LS
1 clown
1 blenny
2 cleaner shrimp
1 turbo snail? (I haven't seen it in a while)
marineland HOB filter
powerhead
90w pc lights..
everythings good except traces of nitrates.
Ever since my lights arrived, I've been having unbelievable algae growth. I bought the light so I could get some corals but the tank just looks horrible. I've been doing about 20-30% water changes weekly and have been brushing (w/ a toothbrush) the LR becasue it is completely covered in hair/slime aglae. This has been going on for a couple of months now and now I put my old light back on to get rid of the algae.Also, I've been looking into another filtration to clear my parameters. Would a canister filter work good for my tank?? I was maybe also thinking about diy refuge? I just don't know...money is tight and I really don't know what I'm looking for in a a filter.
thanks
