So I have a 180 gallon reef and I cannot seem to get a handle on the detritus problem, as well as a bloom of pesky hair algae that is ever present, run a large skimmer on a 40 gallon sump and I do a 50 gallon water change weekly on this tank coupled with large amounts of detritus removal but somehow within a few days there is a load of detritus on the bottom of the tank.... this tank only has 5 fish in it and I feed very sparingly. Any recommendations for how to get rid of this hair algae and any explanations as to why I have so much organic sludge with such a small bioload?
