    I have never suffered with algae problems - but i do see specs appearing of corraline in my tank. I personally do not like it. Luckily my sea urchin eats it before it starts to spread.

    Hair algae! Reduction of nitrates is the key, ie. feeding too much!

    It's HARD to get clients to feed the proper amount.

    If you're going to put so much food in, then let me come for more water changes! :stars:

    Bryopsis hands down. All of the other stuff can be gotten rid of easily.
