Summer hits and tank maintenance slides. It happens every year — water changes get pushed back, glass goes unwiped, and algae starts creeping in. If you’re going to let anything slip, make sure your cleanup crew is picking up the slack.
Cerith snails are one of the best investments you can make for a low-maintenance tank. They work every layer — substrate, glass, and rockwork — eating detritus, cyano, diatoms, film algae, and leftover food before it can fuel a bloom. They’re nocturnal too, so they’re putting in work while you’re not even looking!

Gotta get this hair algae under control
I got a better video of these hairs growing on my torch skeletons has anybody seen or know what these are they have multiplied since the last time.
I have this algae growing, I think it’s Bryopsis, in one spot in my tank. It’s only growing in this one spot in my main tank. It’s also the highest point in my tank. Is there anything I can do to remove this before it spreads. I have some in my sump as well. I’m building an algae scrubber to help export nutrients.
Does anyone know what those hair looking things are on the left side of frag? Doesn’t look good
new phase, algae😢
Had to scrub a lot of hair algae off the rock and lower my white and red spectrum
What's the best way to clean that off my corals and my coral rack
How do I get this hair algae off!!!! 😡 I’ve already treied scrubbing
Been noticing a lot of hair alage growth? Any tips to fix? I cut back on feeding, am I doing something wrong
