Hello fellow members. Need some help!!! So I switched lights had radion pros and now I'm running ATI t5 bulbs. I started noticing some green algae (not hair). No it seems to be taking over my tank and my corals are not to happy:(. I noticed my water seems a bit cloudy not crystal clear like it was months back:(.i do a bi weekly 20% water change. I'm able to easily blow away the algae with turkey baster. But I'm loosing the battle. Please anyone that can give me some advice on how to get my tank back to normal. Appreciate it

Have you considered an Algae Turf Scrubber (ATS)? I have been using one for some time and would not go without one. They are not cheap but IMO they will pay for themselves in time and money spent on water changes, cleaning supplies and chemicals.

 

This is the style of ATS the I use. It is an older video but the concept has not changed.
