Thanks everybody. What's the best way to post pics? I'd like to get some feedback on Bryopsis vs. Hair if you all can see it.

Thanks for your response, please see update above.

bump, help!

did you do anything to make it go away? this has been ongoing for over a month.

thanks! some of my info is in my signature--lighting is T5. but to answer your other questions: right now running 3.5 hrs blue actinic and 3.5 hrs 10k white (half hour over lap). the tank is not...

HELP! I have had this orange algae(?) growing in my tank and cannot get rid of it. Karbonate is high at 14.7 and slowly coming down. No other problems exist in my tank.

what lighting regimen did you use to begin with? amount of time blue and white etc?

heat was monitored closely, plus the fixture has built in fans. Temp did not range more than 1 degree F. thanks again for you input. I will try running the lights shorter and see where it gets me.

short (i.e., only 9 hrs blue and about 2 hrs 10k) exposure. coming from about 15 hrs blue and 10 hrs 10k from previous set up. bulbs were about 18 mo. old when I replaced them.

I tried the acclimation route, believe me I don't want to get rid of the set up. if you have any specific suggestions I'm all ears . . .

I've never heard of water conditions bleaching corals. the algae was likely a result of the extra light mucking up the water though. thanks for the bump.

I wish you were right. but we are talking bleached corals and "cooked" rocks. plus red algae, no fun.

I got this light fixture about 4 months ago but it turned out to be too much light for my tank. I am selling it with the two bulbs I did not transfer over to my old light kit. One each 10K and...
