My suggestion is for a 90 don't go metal halide. You'll probably end up with temperature problems and also it can be too powerful for softies close...
In a 155 you could possibly pull it off but I wouldn't try it personally.
It sounds like you probably have an underlying issue causing multiple alga to grow.
K+ for doing research. My one great moment of weakness with this hobby was with a catalina goby. I bought one assuming it was like the rest of the...
I can't quite tell what you've got there. It looks like a combination of algae-green, diatom, maybe a little hair, maybe a little cyano. If you don't...
Congratulations
Congratulations on the new additions. Watch out for fighting between the sailfins as they mature.

The silicates could be coming in in your water if it is tap water so Im not sure if a water change could help.
What comes to mind is a bacterial bloom or an algae bloom. However, nobody can know until we know how old your tank is, what size it is, what's in...
I've never experienced anything like this but Im very sorry about your loss.
How much would it cost to plumb into my fuge/how would I do it?
