Help getting rid of excessive green algae!

[Alex d]

Hi I’m semi new to saltwater tanks and was wondering if anyone knew how to stop the growth of this green algae taking over the glass. I purchased a green killing machine and also a magnetic scrubber and some snails but it’s not helping much. Thanks!

Continue on water changes, and keeping ur light on for fewer hours. Also if you can lower intensity on ur light.

Raise the water flow a little and lower white light intensity a little and add the following snails:

3 turbo
3 astrea
3 trochus
3 nassarius
3 nerite
4-6 blue leg hermits.

The will help maintain control
