You want hair algae ?

 

[sbazain]

You want hair algae ?

No why

 

[Nate Chalk]

No why

Because I don't/didn't understand what your question is/was

Phosphate does grow algae coral and others. Light does affect most processes

Clean up crew helps algae go away and let other competitors outcompete over time (6-8 months)

What's ur question? Do you have pictures.

What am asking is is 0.25 phosphate enough to have brown hair algae or is part of the cycle is a new tank not a difficult question

Got you part of the deal at what % do you have your whites at if you don't mind me asking

"Got you part of the deal"?

I have kessils and orphek skyblue bars above my tank. I run kessils on this schedule full white for 4 hours.

 

[Nate Chalk]

It just takes time . The tank will be ugly for awhile.

I have snails, urchin, tangs to all eat the rock algae.

My tank sits at .1-.2 phosphate and 10-20 nitrates

How long has your tank been up?
