For hair algae, I got it under control by reducing the photo period, changing my GFO (even though Salifert test kit did not show any phosphates) and increasing flow in the tank. Just 1 week later, the difference was noticeable. The hair algae were turning into a lighter shade and no longer that nasty green. I also didn't see any new hair algae growing. My feeding regime remained the same.

Some sort of Algea scrubber in the sump is a great help in the fight against algea in you display. Before i did this i couldnt pull the algea fast enough and water changes just boosted the growth.

@scottclark7592 2 года назад

A lot of algae problems in reef tanks got worse with the advent of effective protein skimming oddly enough. People used to use higher flow sumps, but to make the skimmers more efficient they started slowing sump flow. This was when we started to see 0 phos in tanks where there was a algae issue and the tank was consuming phos as fast as produced. Many tanks that lost the skimmer and brought in scrubbers and refugiums still had issues-but increasing sump flow to let sump outcompete display often cures this.

Could you do a video about dinos and algae in the tank at the same time?

@keith6744 2 года назад

I made the same mistake buying pre mixed sw and high tds “rodi” water from a local lfs I was wondering why I was having problems until I checked the water now I make my own water and mix my own saltwater, even the pre mix was low on all parameters I was chasing water changes every week trying to bring my numbers up lol just ridiculous.

@leeverink32 Год назад

i sometimes do fill with only rody because of the water level

@hdpete1830 Год назад

Did u do the video on diatoms and algae?

@melodic_breezy Год назад

Hey man, not algae related but during the course of the video I see your right hand side power head doing some sort of purge and shooting loads of micro bubbles through the tank. Is this intentional because its pretty awesome. It will also be providing a boost of oxygen which in turn will help with ph?

@PokePackFire 2 года назад

you do sound different after the foam install.

@dropitlikeitshot815 2 года назад

Or just get a bangin ass algae scrubber. lol.

@leoexprealty 2 дня назад

Can I use a toothbrush to remove algae?

@Steel451 Год назад

If your going to scrub the rocks aren’t they supposed to be removed from the tank? Bc if you do it inside your tank the algae has cells that spread

@GarryL277 Год назад

What is the name of that yellow sps coral in your tank?

About the rodi water.. don’t go chip $$ … the base in this hobby is the quality of water… go with 7 stations minimum…the water is getting more and more chemicals every day

coralline algae at salinity 1.018 be good to grow if all other parameters were good?

Hey Travis, Just wanted to ask if you know anything about Nu Clear canister filters? I came across it this week, but I don't know if it's a good idea...

@FishOfHex 2 года назад

Looked it up and it does say for saltwater. Not sure how I feel about the filter media. If it's free try it

How bad is a penny for the tank? My kid threw one in a few weeks back and I didn't get it out immediately it was like 2-3 days before I got to it. Nothing happened that I can tell but now I'm curious lol

TDS is 3 and 100% not my issue. I'm struggling with Nitrates 0 & Phosphates 0. I have some (very little) green hair algae and diatoms. Tested for silicates and I don't have any. I have four tanks all using the same RODI water and one has this issue lol.

@Semper.Reefing Год назад

I hit 0 nutrients and now I’m dealing with Dino’s and gha.. I think I found the culprit of my algae being a sponge full of detritus in the bottom of my AIOs filtration

@alewis6451 Год назад

I ran a decent reef tank 30 years ago using the berlin system. I decided to start a 29 gal two years ago and i have been at war with this brown, grey slime algae. I'm ready to break it down and replicate the past instead of new-fangled ways. crushed coral instead of sand for easy vacuuming and Vho tubes instead leds. The main working ingredient is real reef rock not this purple painted stuff., I mean rock with Microbes, copepods, and real Coraline algae which provides a great eco system with fish so you can enjoy more than maintaining it.

@miken4552 Год назад

Kinda impossible to find live rock now and they’re expensive AF if you do.

@rich63113 Год назад

@@miken4552 It's not impossible at all. There are a half dozen companies with leases in the gulf who will ship you aquacultured rock for $4-6 a pound.
