Why do I constantly keep getting this brown algea in my tank? My phospate levels are excellent. Is there a chemical that I should be using that controls this. My lights are new also.
it's a diatom bloom, its a normal occurance with fairly new saltwater tanks. they can happen on and off for about a year or so. Just keep up with water changes and it should die out eventually.
My tank's about 2 months old and I had one and it went away, now it's trying to come back since I started using Kent Zoo-plex to feed the corals. I'm laying off it a while and just target feeding my sun corals and doing some more water changes. Also try some Phosban. That really helped me alot. Stuff is a blessing.
