Your tank fairly new?

How long do you leave the lights on and how often do you feed?

 

[kennyishio]

10 hours a day and a little every other day. There's only a Xenia and a damsel. Bad or good algae? Probably bad because it apeares fast and took over quickly.

Cut down ur light time to 7 hrs, and if ur not already, do 20% weekly pwc. It'll go away...
