Aquarium Advice Activist
I believe I'm running my lights too long. Eight hours...
I have a thin hair type algae growing all over my the back of aquarium and all over the rocks.
Two questions.
One: Is algae harmful for the tank, is it something that I should get rid of if I actually like the look of it is it okay to keep?
Two: I'm cutting back on the lights to see if this will help get rid of it. I hear a lot of people do 12 hours on 12 hours off. I have a really high powered LED and I was just wondering how many hours should I keep it on?
14 gallon established saltwater. Reef for month.
Light LED: Kessil a150 LED light. Placed one foot above tank.
