    Is the algae flowing and soft green hair algae or kind of stiff turf algae??

    I had both on my LR at one point. The GHA I was able to get rid of thanks to both water parameters and reefcleaners.org. The turf just wouldn't go away regardless of what I did. I finally took the rock out of the tank, bleached it, soaked it in a baking soda solution, scrubbed it and finally returned it to the tank. I probably should have been more patient, but the tank is algae clear now.

    John at reefcleaners is truly the key.
