I set up my me biocube 14 in 12/26/13 it's been 2 weeks from today and I have seen I have a lot of algea but I don't know why I'm new to this and indeed all the help I can get I have everything that I need to start saltwater master test kit,Hydrometer and cleaning supplies I also bought the water already mixed and I tested it with my hydrometer to make Shure the salinity is accurate I also needed to buy ph 8.2 from API because my ph was at 7.8 I don't know why I am having this problem I read that it's probably diatom algea and this happens when your tank is in its last day of cycling I also added ammonia thank you I will try to post some pictures I also have some dead coral in the whole of my live rock for decoration they gave them to me at global aquatics where I purchase everything including the tank my ph is 8.2 , ammonia 2.0 ppm , nitrate 80 ppm , nitrite is 2.0 ppm
