Apologies in advance for the poor photos-- that's another challenge.
We have some red monti cap that we've been nursing since November. The edges are a bright / red orange, growing, and seem healthy. The middle turns white, fades, and is starting to grow algae.
Tank is stable - 1.5yr 125g mixed reef. We change 30g every 2 weeks, dose BRS 2 part, and test each week.
Latest Parameters:
78.8 deg
1.026 salinity
8.1 pH
411 Ca
8.8 dKh
3 NO3
.07 PO4
1320 Mag
200lbs+ live rock
TONS of Flow - 2 Wave Pumps, 1 Gyre Pump, Lots of turnover through filters and refugium
Despite low / in range PO4 & NO3, the tank develops a film on the glass within 48 hours and we have slight / random dinos or cyano. We brush that and the minor sprouts of algae with a toothbrush several times per week.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
