Hi
I have green algae on my rocks -- it is not hairy or slimy it is just starting to appear on everything --except the substrate which I have crushed coral. My tank has been up and running for about 4 months my ph is good at 8.3, nitrites, 10 nitrates, calcium is about 400 - 440, I have been trying to get my ammonia down with water changes once a week at least 5 gallons sometimes 10 gallons - ammonia is about 25 -- how do I lower the ammonia and get rid of the green algae -- I only have one powerhead and I am thinking I might need more water movement - 72 gal bowfront
