    Parameter check....

    7.8 is not so low... IMO, but could because you measured at night(respiration). Measure again during the daytime to see if you're closer to 8.2. Here's a great article-http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-09/rhf/index.php

    algee outbreak

    You can start by checking your Phosphates, and cut back on your photo period. Perhaps a water change- removing as much physically as possible- In time you'll beat it

    Lighting vs. live rock

    Gotta ask how long has your tank been set up? Are you still cycling? Just an off top guess without knowing.... but I'd guess that your live rock is curing! -- any livestock in the tank?

    BioBalls
