Green Hairy Algae and some green algae

Hi guys i have had my tank running for 3 months and am currently having problems with hairy alage that is growning on my live rock. I have a small patch of green alagae that is growning on my live rock. I have three alage eating snails that arent moving. i brought a lawnmover blenny but havent seen him since i brought him. i just brought two emerald crabs and the lfs say they used them to clean a tank that had hairy algae. I dont know what else to do. I also reduced lighting.

did you add a bunch of new equipment recently?

 

No i didnt

 

Cut your lights to 2hours a day for a week and get a mimic tang. That's what I did and my tank looks better that ever

 

Turn your lights off for a week. After that week, turn them on for 3 hours a day. Next week, 4 hours a day. Next week, 5 hours a day. When you get to week 6 with 8 hours of light, stop adding an hour a week. Maximum light should only be about 8 hours a day.

I am having the same problem, and a friend of mine told me to do the above process. It seems to be working, but I just started it Sunday.

 

Oh, and your water is a little warm. If you are using a heater, I would turn it down.
