My 80 gallon rimless has been running for about a year now, upgrade from previous tanks so sand and rock is all fully cycled. Only problem is all of a sudden im getting crazy diatoms.
I run my Radions a 65% for 6 hours a day, turned the green and red leds off to stop algae growth. Also when i do a 10-15 water change every week or two the diatoms are back within an hour and doesn't look like I did a water change or cleaned the sand at all. The sump is loaded with live rock in the fuge along with a DSB that never gets stirred up and lots of cheato. I have a tunze skimmer way overrated from the tank and a gfo reacto running as well. Anyone know what may be causing this problem?
Thanks for any help to come!!
