Here are some of the answers to the responses.
I get water from the LFS. They use Instant Ocean and RO water
I just checked the water parameters (15 minutes ago) 0 phosphate, 0 nitrate, 0 nitrate, 0 amonia and the PH was about 8.2
Additives: Kent Marine Phytoplex, Kent Marine Strontium with Molybdenum and Tropical Science Marine max (it has been a few months since I used this). 4 days ago I started to add Kalkwasser (Hair algae issue already present). I have carbon and chemi pure in bags in the refugium.
Interesting concept about the lighting between refugium and tank. I need to learn more about macro algae and its effects on other organisims. I did not know that macro algae could control things like hair algae. I understand the effects on things like nitrate and co2. Which could cause growth of other things like the hair algae i guess.
