ID algae?

[javondi]

I've been fighting a battle with this algae for a while and I'm not sure if its dyno cyno diatoms or what. Can anyone ID this for me and what I can do to get rid of it?

My water levels are fine, I feed every few days very small amounts, have lights on for 8 hours(AP700 but ran at low intensity)

What’s your clean up crew?

I don't have one at the moment, the last one I had they all died

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

That’s a problem.

 

[javondi]

I wasn’t sure of why they all died

That’s a problem.

Yeah I wasn’t really too sure of what happened with the cuc

See if you can get a clearer picture. It doesn’t look like dinos , but could be. That will kill inverts.

I would double check your source water for 0 tds.
Run carbon in a high flow area and scrub good befor a large water change. Maybe do that for two weeks and add some more inverts.

I’ll try and take another one here in a little. I think it is if it kills cuc. It’s on sand rocks frags and equipment
