I'm in my 4th week and think my cycle is over. Couple tests show no ammonia nitrates or nitrites. But now have good amount of algae. Green with some portions thick. Some loooooong strings flowing in the currents too. Lights are on a timer for 12 hr on with 30 min ramp up and down and 4 hrs moonlight. It's the main preprogrammed setting. I'm sure that's part of problem. Suggestions on good settings? Just put two chocolate clowns in and a peppermint shrimp but that's it. Going to wait until I resolve this first before adding just in case. I have orbit marine pro LEDs. Thx everyone
 
Ya need a CUC of snails that will take care of the Hair Algae. Ya also need to get your phosphates down to .05 to .03
