Not to burst your bubble buddy, you need to get more info about reefs before you start getting so excited. Everyone makes mistakes when they start a hobby like this. My advice to you is you need more live rock, better lighting get rid of the phosphates and excessive nitrates, buy a book and read about the do's and donts about SW tanks before you Put a video like that on youtube, dont make a laughing stock of yourself, good luck.
if you want to get the slime gone and the other algae that i see. use gfo (Granular Ferric Oxide) to reduce phosphates that should slow the algaes growth and mabye stop it it did for me:) also try using ro/di (reverse osmosis) de ionization will help
i also see Dinoflagellates use hydrogen peroxide at 1ml per 10gallons of water every day for 5 days and then do a 20% water change. that should get rid of the Dinoflagellates and other algae
Nice start, but can I offer a few suggestions? First, get rid of the HOB filters, They produce a lot of over flow into the aquarium and don't remove half the waste they're rated for. They also lack Biological filtration. A good canister will do much better. i. e. (Eheim 2217) Also you need more live rock for another form of Biological filtration. You're also getting a lot of green algae, probably due to a lot of Nitrates in your water. To reduce red algae, you'll need powerheads to move water.
its not good, and not a must see...ge more live sand more, live rock and get mushrooms and zoanthids and some expensive fish,(black ocellaris, wheelers watchman goby, pistol shrimp, fire shrimp,blue tang, etc...)
That clown will become an expensive treat for the lion once it gets big enough. Also let the algae grow, its all in the cycle of a young marine aquarium.
Definetly on the road to failure...Poor Nemo...
