Re: coralline algea
Do you have any live rock in your tank? Is there any coraline on it at all?

Re: coralline algea
Sound to me like you have a water flow issue. You stated you have it around overflows etc. Coraline loves vigorous water flow. Try adding a bigger power head/pump somewhere in the tank and see what happens.

Re: coralline algea
if you get your chemistry right you can't stop it and will look back fondly to the days your tank wasn't pink. alk=4.00 calcium =420 magnesium = 1360 water 78 degrees good flow. this is the formula for happy and healthy tanks. when you are here the pink will follow. good luck
