RO/DI water would be a definite help. What kind of skimmer are you running?

I agree with Christy, nothing you add is going to take care of that, I have gone through it and am still going through it so I am not at the stage of cooking my rock in the very near future to rid it of all algae what so ever, the benifit of cooking the rock is it renues the rock and increases the critter life in it.
