Hi guys:
Everything has been going fantastic with our tank except due to a programming mistake with the lightening at the outset we got off to a bad start with a lot of algae. I reduced the lights to 9 hours per day as soon as I realized the programming error and we change the water weekly and test weekly. I brought in a great clean up crew who helped a lot, but it is still out of control. I just came back from a week away and it is much worse. I have read the 10 things that I need to do to prevent too much algae in the tank, but at this point I now need a quick fix before the tank deteriorates. HELP PLEASE! 32 gallon biocube with LED lights ; 6 fish; one cleaner shrimp; 3 narcissus snails; one banded starfish; 3 scarlet hermit crabs; 2 blue hermit crabs; 3 astrea snails; ; 2 trochus snails; 2 magerrita black turbo snails;and 2; 3 tiny acans; a blue discoma mushroom; 2 hammer corals
