So I tried manual removal, algaefix, Kent tech, various creatures, etc etc. I know this isn't a nutrient thing. My levels are fine, to the point I can't get any other algaes to grow!
I am running phosban and even purigen. The purigen is still as white as when it was first placed in there.
The only thing all these treatments did was irritated my corals. Most are just clinging on it seems. As fast as I scrub the rocks it's back in a few days worse.
I am going to reduce to a 20 long (it's my 29 now) with a sump and try this again but I was hoping to use my same rocks since they are live already. I was going to pick the o es I wanted out and put them in an aerrated bucket with zero light for a few weeks in hopes it would just kill it all off for good but my fear is once placed back in a healthy enviroment it will just come back. I have no idea what's feeding this stuff honestly so there is not doubt the smallest amount left on a rock will once again just carpet the tank once again.
I'm at a loss with this tank. My buddy has the same stuff so I'm sure it's from some store we both purchased at or he gave it to me on a frags he passed me long ago.
