I have some green slime,,dinos,and cyano showing up all over my display. My tank has been running for about 5 years and my scrubber has been working well for about 5 months now. I have been feeding 2 cubes a day for a long time now should i cut back? My scrubber grows a lot of nice green algae but nothing like the sm100's growth. The scrubber caused my displays algae to almost vanish ,,but now it is coming back!

I'll bet you a handful of red slime that your nitrates are zero and your phosphates are zero.
