Not sure a years old mature tank is an apt comparison for how to manage algae in a new/young tank.
This tank has been young too - but treated the right way from the beginning - no ugly stages at all - during a time some diatoms but that´s all. If you do not believe me - please see my build thread.

And you have no idea what's going on?




That´s one way - nuke everything. But with all "nuking" tools - there is a problem when the system should restart - all is gone - even the good guys - the system is in imbalance and as normal in such a system - the bad guys will have a favour.

Chose way - treat it like an ecosystem or treat as a battle field.

I’ve nuked my gha with fluxRx in the past and quickly had dinos right after.
I’m having the same issue as you but I’m not willing to use chemicals unless it becomes unbearable.
 

Figuring out the why: Has your primary reason(s) for keeping a saltwater aquarium changed over time?
