There is always going to be a minimum amount of algea growth like that on your sand bed to some extent, depending on light from windows, etc.

Do you have any fish that naturally nip at algeas? Blenny, Tang, snails, etc?

Some people also don't recommend vacuuming your substrate, but I personally do it once a month and think the pros outweigh the cons.

Thats only min because I put the strip light back on and have just did a water change, and when I do a water chang I scrape it okk the glass and vacumm the top layer of the sand, yes I have a few snails and hermits, but niether messes with the sand bed. The algae also covers the rock and kills all the coralline.

The dark spots are just pieces of rock the uchin broke off, not algae.

[bobby]

I tried macro once but it died,however, before it died it did clear the entire tank. I want some but affraid it will just die.
