I have a 50 gallon sw tank set up for about a year and I've always had some kind of Algae in my tank I do water test and they seem ok NO3 is 10 and PO4 is 00.3 to 0.1 My wife is always wanting to remove the rocks and scrub them clean. but that is problem doing that isn't it ? I looking in to getting a CPR Aquafuge Hang-On Refugium. and putting some live sand and rock rubble and Chaetomorpha Chaeto Macro Algae to aid in phosphate and nitrate absorption. I would like to get the 25" but my tank is 36" so I`m going with the 19" to give me some room on the back of my tank
I have this red Algae that is loose and like a sheet in small patches is it Algae or something else
