Looking for Algae experts....

[bubblewood]

Looking for some ideas from the Algae experts out there.... I have some small patches of this algae starting to pop up in places. Its very easy to remove and soft. Levels in this tank are PO4 .02, NO3 .05. Looking for natural means for removal. Don't want to raise mag and hope for the best. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Po4 is at .02

Ya thats measurable phosphates, you likely have both bound and unbound phosphates in the system. kinda tricky to accurately measure, but since your getting a reading and you have algae thats what you need to limit.. sources are likely food , source water, additives, etc. gfo or other phosphate removers can work and are band aids, better to figure out the phosphate source.
