GHA Alage?

[zemuss]

Is this GHA? This stuff is every where. :squigglemouth:

pictures look kind of fuzzy, but yes it looks like GHA to me.....

 

[OMG Corals]

Sure is! Check phosphates and nitrates. Skimmer output? What water parameters are you currently at?

 

[zemuss]

AUgh I hate this stuff.

I need to check water params again.

I am currently using a media reactor with carbon and rowa to reduce the phosphates in the tank.

Back to water changes tonight.

Note: all pictures were taken with a IPHONE 4.

Add some mexican turbo snails, they will clean that stuff up.

 

[RadReef]

Have you tried urchins? What about a fish that eats algaes like a bristletooth tang.

 

[Reef lvr]

sea hare

 

[cccharliecc]

get a couple emerald crabs, they eat the stuff right up.

 

[zemuss]

I have a Sailfin Blenny in the tank. A TANG? in a 34 gallon why would i torture the poor fish? I tried the mexican turbos and it died. I tried the emerald crabs they are slow eaters. I might have to give a urchin and the sea hare a try. Which should i get? I always thought the urchins would only go for the Coraline algae?

So I have done one water change today and want to do another one. Is here a time frame until I can do another?
