Are you running phosban? I had a cyano outbreak and it completely disappeared three days after I started running phosban in a phosphate reactor. It would make the algae disappear too.

Tru2nr · 02-16-2008, 03:36 PM

no the only thing i use to remove the phosphate is a fuge but i went 6months with tap water untill i got my ro/di system so i had a bunch of hair algae left over from that

Tru2nr · 02-16-2008, 03:38 PM

4 hours to catch that damn fish!!!

and like 20 minutes worth of brushing hair algae off the rock and then my screw for my overflow snaps so i had to use a metal screw for right now

Tru2nr · 02-16-2008, 03:39 PM

heres the final product after 4 hours though

ReefGuy69 · 02-16-2008, 03:41 PM

Hey Tru2nr, i have the same light for my fuge. just wondering if you have noticed any growth from your Chaeto or culpera with it? im thinking of going with a plant light or the corkscrew looking kind because i havent really noticed any growth from my chaeto...

Tru2nr · 02-16-2008, 03:49 PM

i actually haven't noticed any real growth with it but i have noticed my hair algae is/was starting to die off but i haven't had the fuge for more then a couple of weeks i think it may not be strong enuff i have two of those lights so im thinkn' ima gonna put the second one on there so that way there is like 36w worth of light on it
