What do you feed then cuz I heard frozen brine isn't good to just freed it's like candy

I have been feeding frozen brine in my tank, sometimes 3 times a day with no ill effects...... Just some plump fish.

I also feed pellets, flakes and alot of other stuff..... and never a issue, my sons nano gets the same feeding and no outbreaks cause of the food....

How often are you doing water changes? I do mine every other week.........I think thats why I have been so lucky.

if ur levels r under control than u must be feeding something to the algae.....i would cut down more on ur lights couple more hours for a week and dnt know if u dosing iodine or strontium which feeds algae to grow crazy.....stop dosing these untill its gone...

[butwa20]

Yes I am dosing both!

How do you rinse your food?

[Europhyllia]

use tank water to thaw it in a little cup, then rinse it through one of those little blue brine shrimp nets. The seahorse food is very greasy and gets an extra rinse with RO (I got an RO faucet at the sink so that's convenient)

I would suggest stop dosing iodine until algae is gne even strontium aswell

That sounds like great advice there.
