About a month and a half ago, I bought a beautiful blue maxima about 2". He's doing great ! super growth, and a huge mantle ! Even lived through my tank toxification saga ...
Anyway, since buying him, I have been using DTs for the first time. And the excess nutrients in the water have caused massive blooms of green algae. This algae looks exactly like Cyano except for the color (thick mat on sand and rocks, bubbles emerge, thick & gross, peels off).
Any ID ? Do any organisms eat this stuff? It is mostly in the Fuge where I have very little water flow. Should I put a powerhead in the sump to create some current? How much flow do you all have in your fuge?
