Hey guys as I am sure everyone on here has asked the same question over and over however my first obstacle is ID'ing the type of algae I have. Could I have some help in this? I also have Dynos now on top of the Algae. I really think i have 3 types. I have reef flux vibrant and Fritz 460 sluge and chemiclean so I am ready to tackle. Just need to know which way is best. Have a UV, Refugium and only feed once a day one Cube of mysis. I have a 7 stage RODI so I'm just so confused where the nutrients came from. I will post some pics and videos if allowed.

NO3 6.5ppm

PO4 .12ppm

PH 8.4

Mg 1200

CAL 430
Now another big issue I have is this tank is 12 years old. So it's a very established tank. 65G with 20G sump. I just bought a 750xxl that I am transitioning into. I am ready to do so but don't want to do anything yet bc of the algae bloom. Stuck between a rock and a coral ! !

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
