I've never had to deal with this stuff before so I have no idea what to do about it. It started after I switched calcium supplements and my phosphate level went a little above nonexistent, so I blame that. But now that I have it how do I get rid of it? It continues to grow even though my phosphate level is now zero and and I switched back to my original calcium brand.

yank it out by hand.....finding something to eat it is hit or miss. Removing it by hand is really the only way to control it IME

And left me lonely and cold
My life just hasn't been the same
Oh baby no

, I had a suspicion that would be the way to go. I believe I will try just using my 20,000K metal halide and not my daylight T-5 lights and see if that helps also. I read up on the nasty stuff, apparently its poisonous and that's why few things eat it . I guess I'll just pull it up during my next water change and suck up the pieces I pull out with the syphon.
