Sorry but I got to askt he obvious ?s like what are your water parameters and do you use well or RO water? How much/often do you feed etc...? Do you think this is just a phase or has your system matured?

Can you grow macro algae to take up the nutrients and maybe starve the hair?

I gotta admit once I switched over to RO, my tanks has been amazingly clean.... I feel bad casue I bought an algae blenny to help keep it trimmed..... I got him about the same time I put in an RO system...well the algae quickly went away and the blenny never took a liking to nori, spaghetti algae I have in the tank nor flake food .... I havenot seen him for a few weeks, I think he is a gonner

I presume it is the tank with the window in the background, could this also be a factor? Can you out a background on the tank to block the light? I ham not sure that is a factor cause I have read some people have systems in greenhouses...?
Just some ideas!

I would love to see your tanks someday!

Yes denise this tank is in a mostly glass house and i would never block out any thing i even have some 210 gal tanks in a green house room
brian has seen these tanks and i know i can get around this problem some how
hope it is a phase and brian says my water parameters are ok

tank is about year old being broken down to exchange tanks in a 12 hour period about 5 months ago !
