Hello everyone. I have had a saltwater system for 6 years now and I love it. It seems the past year I cannot do anything right. I have never had any problems before other then a cynobateria breakout once or twice. I got a new 180 gallon tank 2 years ago and made my old 55 a refugium. It seems since around that time I have had endless hair algae, a two ich breakouts, to many cyno breakout to count. I just can't figure it out. I have changed everything I can think of Ro filter, lamps, carbon, 40 gallon water changes every other week. Letting the system go for a month, crushed coral, removed that and put sand, multi function cleaning pads......to much to count. I have backed off for a few months to see if it was me doing to much but it has only got worse. No one in my area is willing to come out and do a system check for me or anything so I hope to get some advice here....... I love my tank but it is starting to push me over the edge.
