Okay, the tank has been up for i want to say for around 6 months maybe longer. iv run into this massive brown algae outbreak. im doing frequent water changes along with vacuuming the bottom, i add purple up at night, got snails, and HAD a lawn mower blenny. the tank is 40 long, and i have a power compact for lighting. i have a protien skimmer along with a filter with 2 biowheels on it. i cannot get this algae to go away! its very very frustrating....and oddly my snails seem to kick off and my lawnmower blenny dissapeared. im guessing somewhere in the live rock. i have roughly 30lbs of live rock? give or take a few pounds. i am slightly new to saltwater aquariums. i have 1 damsel in it right now. i would like to make it into a reef aquarium but i am starting to think i may need a bigger tank? i was told that a bigger tank is easier to maintain.
please help me out...iv been fighting this for over 2 months.
