I have been battling this strange red/Crimson algae for about a month now. I have been doing weekly 30% water changes and I have decreased the intensity of my lights. I have also upped the flow and I have cut back slightly on how much I feed. This seems to have slightly slowed the spread but it doesn't look be dying back.
At first I thought it was cyano but it doesn't fit the description. It is not slimy, it just looks like coralline algae only a different color. I have attempted to scrub it off with a toothbrush but it is tough to get it off.
Let me know what you think and how to better treat it. Thanks [
