Ok, so recently I noticed a resurfacing of red algae in my tank..the slimy kind. I have a power compact lighting system, a protein skimmer, and my tank has been set up for about 6 years. This suddenly sprung up in the last month. Maybe I should thoroughly clean out my skimmer? Do water changes every week for a while? Maybe I need to replace my lighting system with new bulbs??(it's been a while). I mean my test kits show no nitrates, ect...but I'm pretty sure the algae feeds off of that so that is deceiving. What are some good products to get rid of this algae temporarily? I will probobly do all of the above..but I just want any help I can get :] thank you
