    Thanks everyone for checking out the video and following my tank still a year later.


    I had a kole tang, to help with this issue and he did a great job, until what i believe was marine velvet took his life and soon after every other fish in my tank within one week ( reason why there are no fish in my tank) Never had a QT tank due to space being limited, well now I will make space. Lesson learned.


    I'm not sure what is causing it. I have no fish in my tank, so I feed my corals maybe once every 2 weeks. I was doing weekly water changes, now doing it every 2 weeks, 10 gallons. Also had I attached a filter sock into the sump and siphoned out the GHA using larger tweezers, this allowed me to siphon as much as I wanted to get as much GHA as i could, while collecting the GHA in the filter sock. And my secret weapon is a sea hare. Anyone with GHA issues should not waste their time on any other natural remove method (snails, etc.) The Sea Hare tears through anything green.

    I have also read that he BPs can contribute to GHA if your skimmer is not pulling all of the bi-products the BPs produce.

    Looking good JB! Congrats on the new fish! No coral loss tho, due to the GHA outbreak?
