what do you feed and how much?.....you could also reduce the time your lights are on....you could consider running rowaphos in a bag in your HOB.....

My fish get Spectrum Optimum. I'm very careful not to overfeed. I throw in a few flakes at a time and watch the fish eat them.
My corals get a little less than 1/8 of a teaspoon of Coral Frenzy twice a week. My lights are on for 9 hours/day right now. I will try cutting it down to 8 hours and see what happens. I'm running SeaGel in my HOB which already has "phosguard" and carbon in it. My LFS recommended to run it in my HOB continuously. Is this a good product? Should I be running it full time? Thanks for your suggestions!

Another trip to the LFS today!
Picked up six more turbo snails and a cleaner shrimp. I just like the look of the cleaner shrimp  My battle against the green hairy stuff is looking pretty good! The red algae problem I had is also gone with the tide! I recently purchased a Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro test kit (Calcium, Magnesium and Alkalinity) Here's my numbers: Calcium-520ppm Alkalinity-9.2 dHK Magnesium 1440 ppm Working on bringing my alkalinity up to about about 12 at the moment which from what I've learned should bring my calcium down...right? My frogspawn has not been terribly happy since about a week after I got it. Polyps are extended maybe half way (if that). I give it about a week in one spot and then move it to a different location in the tank to see how it likes it, but still no luck. Is there anything in specific that I could be doing wrong? I have him in a fairly low current location which, as far as I know, is what they prefer....
