Awesome post John. The pictures are a great touch and will help our members with identification, no doubt. I would like to add something here...
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...
1. Skimmer - Remove the nutrients before they grow nasties.
2. RO/DI - Why add phosphate/silicates to your system.
3. Water Changes - Use RO/DI, perform them regularly.
Thanks John,
Christopher
