What can i do to get rid of this stuff before it kills all my coral. I'm not sure i can increase flow any more without creating a sand storm. It seems to really like my macro in my fuge. I remove it and its back the next day. I saw some Red slime algae remover on your site, is that something to try?

It often works but can be just a bandaid to mask the problem or the cause as well. How are the nutrient levels in your tank i cannot remember(PO4 and Nitrate)? Also same question for PH? High nutrients and low PH can assist in it's growth as well as the circulation.

Here is a good thread with lots of info which might help
