Reefing newb
I am at the end of my rope. I have a pretty bad red algae buildup in my aquarium (fish only). I turned the lights off for 4 days. When i turned them back on, shocking enough the red was all gone. 2 days later, boom back to where it was from the start. I have tested the water and everything is spot on where it should be. The lighting i am using is Octopus Horizon 4ft with 2 x 4ft 54W T5HO Pacific Blue Actinic tube 2 x 4ft 54W T5HO Artic White tube 2 x power heads. I am using RO water now for abut a month or so, with constant 15-20% weekly water changes, sucking off the red off the sand and the live rock each time. Originally my tank started off with de-chlorinated tap water. Any help or advice any could offer would be great.
