Algae Scrubber. Can you go too big?

@JWsticks thank you for the input .Yes it is. Apex fuge light. I was going over my ATI ICP logs as well as I dose Reef moonshiners program for the last 3 months. One thing that stood out big time is that I have not been dosing enough Iron and Magnanesse daily which most likely slowed / stoped the cheato growth. As growth was off the hook just six weeks ago and has not picked up since last harvest.
Awesome tank log and hope the iron additions address your issue. If you ever want to increase export further via the refugium, think about a higher wattage LED.
 
I am running a diy 2 10x10 sheets with a 40 watt menards led grow light in between the two screens so they are only lit on one side each . This is for my 125g with 30 gallon sump. Tried to run close to ocean water but at 0 x0 dinos show up . I have cut back to one screen . So far phosphates are at .03. I have a hanna low range nitrate checker on the way.
My corals look alot better with the higher nutrie
