220 with 75 sump. Leaving light on in sump to get algae growing in refuge area. Using a incandescent light when feeding over main tank. Running skimmer all 3 days and pitting new filter sock on after day 2. Soon as I turn lights back on I am going to put more macro in refuge to take up excess. Hopefully this crap wont start back up. I also put an air stone in refuge to help algae growth go down there instead of main tank.
Any thoughts?
 
Can't use any light, no light at all, not even to feed the fish. 3 solid days, no cheating.
