Over the past two months I have been having an algae outbreak. The tank has been up and running for over 1 year. I have an all in one 40 gallon breeder system that has treated me very well and I have thought I have treated the tank well. I started to have outbreaks about 2 months ago. I especially get outbreaks on days that I feed reef-roids, I assume its the influx of nutrients but not sure why the tank is not able to handle the feeding of the corals. I run a protein skimmer, small amount of ROX carbon, and GFO. The algae is easily blown off the rocks but is not stringy, only on days that I feed reef roids does that algae create small bubbles of gas, CO2 or whatever it is. Thanks for the help in advance!!
