Anyone got nuisance algaes?

[kien]

So, curious, does anyone have nuisance algae in their tank??

Does an Emperor Angel count?

[Aquattro]

Oh, I have pests showing up at my door trying to get in my tank. Do they count too?

Sorry, I was going to list All the nuisances in the poll but the list got overwhelming LOL! So instead I limited to just algaes and bacteria this time around. Will do another one for other nuisances critters later.

Oh sure, add a poll after I post.

Sorry, none of the above, I'll wait for the poll on pest fish and hobbyists

Vodka dosing and a whack load of snails cured my problem.

Green film algae. I clean glad every other day. It's just a light dusting though

I currently have a lot of hair algae which is hurting my pearl bubble coral I have loaded up with snails and tried lights off my tangs are lazy and have no interest. So I am going to try this algeafix stuff as soon as I can order it. I am blaming new tank syndrome for this at this time and the fact I didn't have my Refugium running. Also a small bit of diatoms. And lastly he film algea drives me nuts cleaning glass every day it seems may have to try gfo once I find a reactor

Yup, had dictyota since the very beginning. It must have been on my original purchase of LR and I've never been able to do anything but manually crop it. GFO does nothing for this algae IME. My tank is too small for a Naso which I hear eats the stuff. Thus my excuse for the upgrade to my 210 which is still a work in progress.

I have a little red slime right now.... Grrrrrrr. All my levels are spot on. No phosphates, no nitrates. Lots of flow and new bulbs. I run GFO, carbon and bio-pellets. I seem to be winning the battle though. I just constantly stir up my SSB and adding Ultra Snow once a week. Also, blasting off my rock with a turkey baster once a week. Not sure what else I can do but it is not spreading anymore and seems to be retreating a little...
