Bubble algae grows in YOUR tank?! I refuse to believe it!!

Yeah, ever since I started feeding the anthias and brain coral more often......... but I still keep them in check with a pair of tweezers.

How do you keep your water so clear and micro-bubble free?
My water looks cloudy by comparison. :(

1 cup carbon every 3-4 weeks
Bare Bottom (so I siphon any little detritus I see when needed)
A LOT of water movement; almost 35X tank internal turnover.
Baffles in my sump got re-configured for bubble-less return from the Iwaki 20

Oh, and I STRATEGICALLY feed the fish with that acrylic tube to concentrate all the food so they get eaten rather than dispersed.
 
Man I hate that dusty water look. I generally make a huge mess out of my tank when I'm feeding :-) Part of that is on purpose though for the LPSs that I keep (including Sun corals which enjoy the food from the water column). But even far removed from feeding the tank is still dusty looking. Makes me want to run some major mechanical filtration. What does everyone who isn't bare bottom doing to get the "dust" out of their tanks?!

Hey Merv, I have some Macro if you need it!
 
I tried going the macroalgae route, I can't keep em alive for the life of me!

Thanks though. I have macro algae too.... the "Inappropriate bubble algae" LOL

way # 2 would strip the number of posts in this thread that you made from your post count..

Ok now, who wants to give me a frag? ;)
 
bubble algae is one of those algaes that doesn't need a lot of nutrients, it feed's more of the light, so may bee u need to down grade u'r light LMAO.
