Now that the initial cycle of my tank is completed I'm ready to move on to the next-phase and had a couple of questions:
Do I need to worry about bubble algae? As of now, I think it looks kind of cool but will it quickly spread into a big problem if I don't get rid of it? Also, I have 'some' hair algae...it was starting to be a minor problem but some manual removal and a few hermits seem to have gotten it in check.
Up to this point I haven't been testing for Calcium or Phosphates. If I get a couple of RedSea kits will they be sufficient or should I buy Salifert? All my other kits are Salifert.
Thanks in advance for any and all replies...the advice I've received on this board has been invaluable!!
