[joaovieira]

Hi,

I have a 200 gallons reef tank with SPS/LPS/8 fishes.
About 1 week ago after starting running GFO my montipora is getting pale and it shows brown algae. my acropora seems to be much better (polyps more extended). Yesterday i started dosing vodka.
Ca 420 kh 9 mg 1300 nitrate 0.5 phosphate 0.07 .

What should i do?

Decrease photoperiod ?. Stop GFO ?

The algae is not good! Did you change anything else in the tank? Location of the coral, light bulbs, or light height?
