I have some kind of brown looking slime algae that has taking over my sand bed. I have a 120gal with two 400watt 20K lights. My water perimeters are good, my bulbs are less than three months old, my lights are on for 8 hrs, (I cut them back to 5 hrs today), I have good water circulation and I do 25% water changes every week. Tank temp is between 77 and 80 deg. I have a good clean up crew consisting of different kinds of crabs, snails and shrimps.
I guess my question is, does someone know what this is and how can I kill it? What can I do to prevent getting it again?
Thanks for the help.
