Algae/bacteria ID?
In the last year or so a slimy algae or bacteria has developed in my tank will grow everywhere, from the live rock to glass to sand. I had done some reserach earlier and it seemed to be some sort of bacteria, not an algae, but I am still not sure. About 2 months ago I started dosing with Dr Tims Waste Away in the recommended amount and it seemed to help a little, but not get rid of it. I do water changes once every 2 weeks and try to suck out as much of the bacteria as I can. It seems to grow less in areas of high flow and does not grow where there is shade (under rocks). Does anyone have an ID on this stuff and/or recommendations on how to get rid of it?
