I have a 5.6 gal reef. It has 4 pounds of LR, 1 tree coral (soft coral), some small pieces of Elkhorn, a button polyp, a bunch of small polyps that look like green mushrooms (I was told they were a mushroom polyp but the mushroom polyps I have seen look nothing like these...) 1 conch, 1 turbo snail, 2 turban snails (I forget the real names of these snails), and a cleaner shrimp.
I have a problem with Cyanobacteria. I was told that this is caused by high nitrites?
I am feeding Red Sea Calcium (+3) once a week, Coralife 2X a week, and Phytoplan 2X a week. The person I got this tank from was feeding Calcium 1X a week, The Coralife ever other day, and the Phytoplan everyday.
I felt that was a little too much so I knocked the feeding down, I have had this tank for a month and it is doing good (except the cyano.)
Should I be feeding more/less or different food, Please help!
