Hello,
I have had my 20 gallon now running for roughly 2 years and this algae is the only problem I face. I do a water change every 1-2 weeks as the algae builds up fast and I attempt to remove as much per water change. My tank currently has 2 clowns, 1 firefish, and one shrimp. I have minimal clean up crew, personally I don’t think they help the tank much and I have tried multiple different snails, crabs, etc.
How can I battle this algae in the best way possible? My light is on for 9 hours (pretty standard). Let me know your thoughts. I have any test kit if you think that is needed… I no longer test my aquarium as my limit corals seem happy.
