I have a small patch of hair algae starting up in my tank after getting rid of a cyano problem which I think was caused by phosphates leaching from the dry rock I added about 4 months ago. I don't have anything in my tank that is eating it, and I think I remember hearing that not many critters...

Okay so, I have a 29 gall biocube with about 20 pounds of live rock and two clowns and a damsel, some coral has vegan to sprout all over the rocks and I'm curious as to what it is since I've never seen it before. It's a tannish coral with white spots on the tentacles. It has a white star shaped...

IT has been a while since I have asked a question but here goes. I have a 55 reef tank. About a year ago I had an issue with some "hair" algae. Bought a sea hare and it took care of it. THe sea hare is gone and that algae is back. I bought another sea hare and it is making some progress. First...

:thumbup: I have a newly cycled 28 gallon JBL NanoCube HQI (3 months old) with LR & LS. All water parameters are good & clean-up crew is in (snails & crabs). LR was cooked & cured before start-up. However, in the past week that pest of pests - the dreaded HAIR ALGAE (brown, green & filamentous...

Been fighting this HA mess for about a month now in my 10g nano. I've got my params pretty much down perfect now. I do a 25% water change every 3 days and feed my 2 fish only a very, very tiny bit every 4 days (feel like I'm almost starving them but I'm trying to get out all the nutrients from...
