Well I took the plug out of the water and scraped it off with a blade. It didn't work as well as I liked but hopefully it got rid of most of it.
There was a tiny bit of hair algae on one of the other plugs but before I could get to it, one of the hermits was busy mowing it down and as of last night, there is none left.
For some reason, this tank greens up the glass really really fast...in one day. I have been checking PO4 and it's not high...almost not detectable on my Salifert test kit. My main tank which only gets cleaned once per week reads 4 times higher. I added some more phos in a different spot in the sump. I think my reactor isn't working right because I don't have enough flow in it. I've got a new pump on it's way from OA that will bump that up and get better flow soon.
