I have a new tank, 300 liters. Is a Berlinese, with heavy skimming, live rocks, medium sand bed. The tank is 2 month and half going.
I have only two fishes, both eat algae. The corals are growing FAST, think that in two weeks two "flowers" of tubipora musica became eleven. I have also SPS -acropora,montipora- growing fast. My values are:
ph 8,3 No3 5, PO4 0.01, Ca 450, Kh 8, Magnesium 1200.
The problem begun two weeks ago, when I added some sugar sized aragonite sand. A green alga is able to cover my glasses in only a day. On the rocks there are some green filamentous -eaten- and some red calcareus algae, growing slow but growing, also in new spots every day.
The green algae I belive are cianobact.
What I can do?
This algae will soon go out alone like I've read in books?
Thanks,
Marco
