take out the caulerpa
Caulerpa? Is this the unknown plant? Boo Hoo, it was doing so well, growing all kinds of new roots, (probably because of the phosphates eh?) I am planning on setting up a hospital tank, can I move it to there?

run a phosphate sponge in a canister filter
I bought a pack of three greenx phosphate remover filter packs and have put two into my filter....is this what you mean?

I also added a second carbon bag.

Skim hard. And call Jayson at SWC for some clams.
I don't have, and admitedly know much about protein skimmers (I assume thats what you mean) however I will do some reading.

Clams???? Will they help with the algae, and as far as I have read they tend to be difficult to keep, and as you can tell, I am a novice. Is there a website, or where is this dude Jayson's number????

borrow or buy a UV sterilizer
borrowing is out of the question, I know no-one around here who reef's, or even has much interest in any sort of aquarium. But I will look into buying one........is there any hope of clearing it up without one????
