bro how much live rock do you have in your tank? Maybe add more?

ei. not much well but got well.. cant add anymore as it will look too clustered. i prefer more space for fish to swim and sps to grow..

Hey zorden, may I suggest you try the Zeovit Coral Snow and Zeozym combination... it worked for me. :) Got rid of all the dirt ( the brown diatoms) on my sand and it's supposed to get rid of the Red Algae as well. :)

Cheers, ;)
