ALang is on a distinguished road

I've had a bad case of red turf for months. Thought I'll never be rid of it. It absolutely covered all my LR. On top of that, I had green Hair algae.
The red turf is all just about gone, and the green HA, too. Things that I did for my 130g:
Water parameters: Cal, ALk, and Mag levels are monitored and topped up when needed.
I added about 7 Mexican turbo snails.
I added 3 tuxedo urchins.
I added one seahare, which I never did find after that day (been couple of months).
I was still using my crappy, ineffectual HOB Remora Pro (too small for my over-stocked system.)
I didn't really step up on my water changes, just doing my normal thing.
I must say, since I've implemented these steps, my LR's coraline algea is BACK! My HA is gone to the point where I need to post on Canreef very soon to ask if anyone will buy the urchins and some Mex snails from me because I am afraid that they will die of starvation soon. So do that, and give them time to do their job. Mine was about3 months, but all of a sudden, I've noticed bare Rocks. Good luck.
