I am having a issue with hair algae, so I went to LFS to have my water
tested and to ask for some advice. He said that my water looked good except
nitrate (not to bad, he suggested raising my alk to above normal. I am
afraid that it could hurt my red craps I have in the tank. Is raising the
Alk a common way to fight hair algae? Note: I have a 44 gal tall tank, 52
lbs of live rock and a prizm skimmer.
