Struggling with Brown Algae

I had a problem with diatoms as well, started covering all my plants. I was looking at some tanks at Aquajardin in gloucester and it struck me how "bright" my tank was. I lowered my par to about 25. The algae cleared and I have raised the PAR to 30

Drop your par level further for a week or two. Go lower than you think you should then if that does not work you will have to look elsewhere.

It's like cooking. You can always add more salt.
