HAIR ALGAE PROBLEM

[georgeburt]

Hi,

for a while now I have what appears to be brown hair algae.

I hand pick majority of it out in a water change but within a couple of weeks it grows back! I’m using Rowaphos and carbon, nitrates and phosphates are very
low. It only seems to grow on the back wall no rocks or nothing. Please help!

Scrape and syphon. Maybe feeding to much or long photo period feeding the algae. Low nutrients may be the result of algae consumption.

Vibrant has always taken care of my GHA issues. I don't dose it all the time and it takes awhile usually (a few weeks) but it seems to battle it back pretty easily in my tank without upsetting much else. I have a mixed reef - euphyilla, SPS, LPS, softies, anemones, etc.

What's your CUC? My trochus snails seem to keep most of it cleaned up these days?
