quick update, after tearing out all my equipment, sump, media, etc. I put an old sump in to run the tank on and I tried Kent's clean equation and it seems to be helping. Fish are fine and have been fine. I'm not sure whats going to happen to the corals that still show signs of life, they're pretty damaged.... Time will tell.
I've done 3 water changes and have been cycling as much fresh seawater as I can in 30 gal containers. It appears I've got about 85% of the algae bloom taken care of. The rest should starve off pretty quick and my clean up crew will work on it.
I really wish I could figure out the exact problem, nothing is more irritating...
BTW, My reasons for a fuge are for the supplement and trace minerals, pods for 2 mandys, fresh greens for my tang, and the benefit of nitrate and phosphate reduction. I have a mix of pods, cheto and red and green gracillaria maybe I'll just go with sand from my tank LOL! I do have a 3" - 4" sand bed...
