If you see some coming back, it is likely that something ate it. I guess all you can do is keep a close eye on it for the possible culprit.

Doesn't sound like your photoperiod is too long. Maybe you could go an hour less on the halides, though its probably not necessary. What kind of flow do have in in the tank?

Probably the the line the snails left after eating the algae. They eat in that zig zag pattern.

I would ask Randy in the chemistry forum. He could probably tell you the chemical makeup of each, how they work, why they work, and which one is the better phate absorber.

IME, they are not bad at all. They are called asterina stars. Some say they may eat corals, but I had thousands at one point and they were model citizens.

I hope you guys don't have much rock in your tanks. They will be a huge hassel to get out. The best way to go, really, is to remove the rock and some water making them easier to get out with a net....

It may not be growing quickly because your trates and phates are very low. Judging by the pic, it doesn't look like the cyanno is choking it out. Cheato is fairly slow growing anyway, but it may just...

My fuge grew cyano for awhile too. Not a single spot in the display tank, but quite a bit in the fuge. I just had to keep removing it manually. I still get some, but not as much. One solution is to...

Well, I can't use the search function, but I remember someone on here who had a cold water reef. It was supercool! Hopefully someone who can use the search function can find the thread.

When this happened to me I blasted more flow across the surface of the water to break up the film enough to go through the overflow. The skimmer should take care of it from there.
