So i posted as i got my tank up and running and its been about 3 months now. I have a sand sifting goby and fox face lo along with 8 turbos and 10 hermits. Ive noticed a huge algae spike and my water is testing all green across the boards. i cant imagine the bio load being too much. I have turned down my leds from 80-90% to a mere 15% and they are only on for 6-7 hrs a day(blues on all day, could this be it?) but i got some green hair growing as well as red slime. there is something that also is orange fluorescent at night but looks red most of the day. my skimmer is overkill for this take(100g model on 60g) any ideas? the algae got so bad that my green star polyp colony hasnt opened in days, took it out when i noticed it was "melting" or turning to white goo. will try to post photos after work.
