Default Phosphates.

I understand you went up in lighting, I am not sure that would cause that much of a problem. As I stated before you still might have a phosphate issue as it can get absorbed by live rock. The extra light may have initiated a bloom but the problem may have already been there.I still would suggest Rowaphos or a similar replacement. Pick out as much of the algae as possible and see what happens. As for the Sea Hare, I am not to familiar with Calgary other than the Deerfoot trail, If your local pet stores get one in, couldn't you put it in an insulated container for transport? When they get stock of course. It might be a bit cold for shipping as I think I heard it was -40 or so. We were only at -10 so a bit warmer but I still wouldn't ship. I have a Ricordea order on hold until it warms up a bit. As for their description ...A slug sort of covers it..Ugly but in a way..Cute.
