Iodine and Hair Algae? Hello all. My tank has been going along fine and then recently I've had an out break of hair algae. I recently learned of the need for iodine in a reef system and started adding seachem iodide to the tank (after buying a test for iodine). This started around the same time the algae began. Is it true that the iodine can contribute to the hair algae's growth? If so, what do you do about that(no hair algae, but with iodine)?
