Default Re: Red Slime Issues

Tom,

Are you running a protein skimmer ? If you can adjust it to run a little more "wet" It may help. Maryg is correct, there is something feeding the cyano bacteria (red slime) and without removing the source of nutrients, you are not going to eradicate it. I also would recommend a clean up crew that includes sand stirrers (Starfish, Nassirus Snails etc..)
