well its been a while so heres an update. My water went super green again. I added a fluval U2 to my tank so i could add carbon and other medias easily. Well it worked for a few days but went back to green again. I thought it needed to be changed more often so ive been doing that. No go. Ive fed A LOT less... no go. I started using coral snow... no go. Ive been doing huge WC. It helps out a bit but then the water goes back to green. *sigh*

So anyway. I did some more reading about green water. It could be either of two things. Phyto or algae. Im thinking it may be phyto because i have no algae issues in my tank other than the green water. Its green all the time. It doesnt get less or more green throughout the day. Carbon and Polishing filter floss doesnt help. WC dont really help.
Soooo, Im currently trying to buy a UVS.

Im hoping that a UVS will solve the issue.

Ive had a few coral die on me because of lack of light very sad.
