    reddish/brownish/maroonish algae???

    It sounds like red slim. It may start to propagate on the rock. You can just siphon it out. Also, there are antibiotics that are safe for reef tanks that is call, oddly enough, "Red Slime Remover" by Ultralife Reef Products. I have used it and it works well.

    How do I re-arrange my live rock?

    Phosban Reactor I tried the phosban reactor for several months but it didn't work. I'll try the limewater. As far as the feeding, I only feed the fish 3 times a week.

    Hair Algea from Hell

    My lights are on for about 9 hours a day. I reduced this in the past but it didn't help much. My nitrates are fine. That's why I can't understand this. I've tested for just about everything.

    Hair Algea from Hell

    I could really use some suggestions on how to control unrulely hair algea. It came into the tank from a piece of coral that I added. Unlike other forms of hair algea, this propagates through the tank like a weed. I have already cleaned and changed a lot of the rock. I have tried all kinds of...
