    Hi
    My original thread is here:
    http://www.reefcorals.co.uk/forums/s...ead.php?t=1251

    It started off nice n clean then I had all sorts of algae/cyano woes. The pic above is as of Today, sorted out the brown cyano/diatoms/dinps (whatever it was) problem.

    Tank is 48x18x24 with 20g(ish) sump and I like to keep the back clean, none of that purple stuff :)

    Hi Col That looks super a big difference from last time i saw it, its nice when you get results like this after weeks of the horrible algae. You have the makings of a very nice tank there, TOTM here we come. :) Eric
    I have upgraded to a 48x26x30inch with a 40x18x18 sump which as a Bubble Magus NAC7 skimmer with a Eheim compact 5,000 return pump.

    Thanks for the compliments.

    Yeah, it's great to finally (hopefully) have beat the blooms that can ruin a tank. At one point I didn't think it would ever go and my hands were never out of the tank.

    Still got a touch of hair algae, but after the brown stuff it's nothing to concern me. I can look forward to developing the tank now, slowly of course.

    I will post more pics soon.

    The toady in the middle was stuffed away at the back for the best part of a year - what a waste huh?
