    That's a good way, check your nitrate and phosphate levels and look for flow dead zones they can make it hard to control the algae.

    yeah my nitrites and nitrates are 0 but i don't have a phosphate test yet so that is probably the cause.

    i need to get another koralia but i have been using a turkey baster to clear out dead zones.

    Good job, find out where those are and you will be able to defeat it possibly.

    Just wanted to warn you about some aptasia in a few of your photos. You should get that out asap, but don't pop them.

    Great sump. very well thought out.
