Algae bloom covers glass within hours

[ajshepherd17]

I have a Red Sea 350 g2 that’s been running for about 5 months now and all of the sudden there has been this bacteria bloom or algae bloom for the past few days. I will scrape the glass in the morning and by noon the glass has a film to the point the whole tank looks blurry. What’s the best way to go about this issue? My nitrates are at 0

Wait it out- Most bacterial and algae blooms will resolve themselves within a few weeks.

If it doesn't- maybe a UV Sterilizer.

Get a UV an never look back. I run Aquatop Eliminator and very happy. I went through months of blooms from green to cloudy white.

UV sterilizer took it down in 2 days for me when my tank was young.
90 bucks for this guy, a UV for ponds worked wonders at a fraction of the cost.

Two weeks ago I had a really bad green algae bloom in my tank water. First algae I had in 9 months of running the tank. Got this from Amazon and it was gone in 4 days.

What product from Amazon did you buy? The link didn't show up on the post. Thanks!
