Howdy, folks. I'm wondering if one of you guys in the Northeastern PA area (NY: Orange / Rockland, NJ: Sussex, PA: Pike / Wayne) might be willing to stop by and give an opinion on what's going on with my tank. I'm willing to supply all the pizza and beer you can eat. ;-)
Backgrounder: A while back I was struggling with Dinos. I tried the lights-out with no success other than weakening my SPS to the point where they're now all dead. I then used DinoX and that helped, but now I'm being overrun with GHA. A couple weeks ago, I did a 10% water change and siphoned and scooped out the algae from the rocks and sand bed as much as possible, but it's right back.
What worries me is that this might all be attributable to the location of my tank in the house. It gets a lot of early day sun from the skylights, and if that's to blame, there's no easy fix. But if it's something else that's within my control, your input would be appreciated.
