I’m assuming maybe this is part of the “ugly” phase LOL! My snails will have plenty of food!Welcome to R2R!! I'm still new so I can't really give much advice yet. Luckily, there are lots of people here who know pretty much everything there is to know so you should get some really helpful information shortly.
My ugly phase was an intense diatom (brown) bloom, that was followed by a spike in green algae. It went away on its own, with the help of some voracious Astrea snails and a Molly. I assume you already went through the brown phase, so hopefully this passes quickly.
I have a 225g system. I started by ordering a 50g package from Reef Cleaners. I didn’t want to get too many and them starve. I figured I would buy more if needed.Welcome to R2R! You're on your way! CuC will help with a lot of the algae! If you don't mind me asking how big is your tank and what was the size of your cuc? Depending on the algae you might have to adjust the crew or size.
