    Yeah….did you read my reply to you above?

    I would not suggest adding more bio load to a tank that has algae issues as it is. Nice looking animals tho.

    Some of it looks like it is running out of nutrition... It grew very well but now is begining to look like a bad lawn browning out.
    I do have a very healthy looking emerald crab .
    And a very large lawnmower blenny , who until recently was showing some real passive agressiveness... Was still getting used to his abode.

    Water params are great, the lawn has been growing from the rock... And i believe i have flow issues resolved so they will no longer be such a fertile plain

    Sounds like you are doing the right thing to eliminate the GHA – good job. Your chemical front is precisely what I would have recommended.

    I just wouldn’t advice adding anything to the tank until you have everything situated. I would hate to hear that you had something die off and compound your issues. Keep us posted.
