Nasty Hair Algae
 
I have a hair algae that nothing will eat all over my tank (even on snails).
Sally lightfoot, emerald crab, blue legs, scarlets, astrea, red legs, yellow
tang and sailfin blennie won't touch this crap. I have to scrub with tooth
brush to remove but it will grow back. I use phosphate remover but not all
the time. I change 4 (5-6) gal buckets of water a month. Have wetdry using
sock. Have Berlin skimmer too. 75 g tank up and running since nov. 07. My
live rock is old but was clean when I just started this back up after a
house remodel. rock was in barrel for 8 months.
I was thinking about placing LR in a grey trashcan with the cover on it for
a good month with a pump to recirculate the water to kill it.

ANY IDEAS?? Tanks.

4" of brand new sand was used along with 22lbs of GARF GRUNGE live sand

activator.

Kent Marine RO unit is used to make water. Nitrites are 0, Nitrate is
appears to be under 10. Phosphate appears to be 1 or 1.5.
Aquarium Systems test kits are used

ANY IDEAS?? Tanks.

Best idea is to be patient. I had some nasty algae issues myself, and
still see some of it growing on the snail and whatnot...but as the tank
has been up and running a little longer, it's become less and less of an
issue. I think I hit around 8 or 9 months when I really noticed the
drop off in terms of algae production.

I would rather have a nasty case of hair algae than the ****ing crotch
crickets that I got from screwing KurtG. Man do those ****ers
itch..........As for your algae problem, just dump a gal of chlorox
inthe tank and that will fix any algae problem in a matter of minutes.
Works for me and its what these dickheads recomend most times anyhow.
Big Habeeb the butthole licker anfd fart sucker does not have a clue.
He is just a wanna be rag head.

Do you have bio balls in your wet dry? I'd slowly take them out and let
your skimmer remove the nutrients before they turn into nitrates.

Also, your phosphates are still high. They should be undetectable or
that is the way that I run.

Also, I'd dose with kalk water. Just get a drip. It seems that if you
can get coraline to grow, it will out compete the hair algae. I still
have some hair algae growing on some snails, but other then that things
have cleaned up nicely.

How often do you feed? You'll probably need to ration food more tightly
as well and get your nutrients down.

How old is your tank?
Hair algae is common in newer tanks
Are you using RODI?

No Bio Balls

I drip kalk faster than norma but with every days 3/4 gals a day I have to
add.

I also use a little liquid calcium. I am having a hard time getting the
pink and purple to grow. Seems like this green crap is seriously overtaking
evrything. Getting longer and thicker. looks like a kelp forest in many
spots.

The skimmer is a pain in the butt. I can either make none , its still too
slowor it make too much and fills my overflow gallon and the floor.

I feed every other day unless my wife feeds them too. I'll ask her not
to feed untill I fix this.

I have 3 damsels, a sailfin blennie or goby, and a ....hmmmm, forgot, like a
baslet size.

patient is very hard with this tank looking like it does.........

Trust me, I know what you're talking about. When my tank was about 4
months in I was COATED in thick green hair algae. My tank looked like
my lawn. I reduced the amount of daylight the tank had slightly,
monitored feeding a bit more closely, kept a phosphate bag in the sump
(still there now), and syphoned it out manually. Gradually it just
stopped coming back. Instead I have the nasty sort of fleck algae that
you really need to scrape away...but it doesn't come back at anywhere
near the rate the green hair had been.

I apperceive what you're talking about. When my catch basin was about 4 months in I was COATED in blubbery blooming hair algae. My catch basin looked like my lawn. I bargain the bulk of aurora the catch basin had slightly, monitored agriculture a bit added closely, kept a phosphate bag in the sump, and syphoned it out manually.
