Hello,

Thought i'd get some information from others on my tank. I've had my tank around 2 years and about 8 months ago had some major algae bloom. My fiancee trying to help, used an algae remover inside the tank which ended up poisening all my fish so i lost my stock. Recently got back into it and got 2 clowns, a convict goby and a gramma. While the tank was without fish my corals went nuts, I had one kenya tree and 2 mushrooms when the fish died. As you can see the trees/mushrooms are going crazy. Upgraded from a 2 bulb t5 to a 4 bulb t5HO 159w. Found a great deal on amazon for 71$ for this system. I'll include a picture of the tank.

Welcome. Algae is caused by excessive phosphates. An RO system will go a long way in preventing blooms when water changes are done on a consistent basis.
