I've had my tank up since January. For about 4 months I've been having a moderate battle with green algae. I've been out of the hobby for about 8 years so I'm off practice, but I've never seen this kind of algae before. It is very long, single strand that can grow in excess of 12". It's definitely not chaeto. Phosphates showing up 0 on Salifert, but I'm sure my algae is consuming it. I have about 5 trochus snails and a single margarita. According to aquacon.com, my snail population needs to be increased substantially. Do ya'll think this would help?
