As some of you know I currently have a 20 gallon temporary tank until i get the 55 the way that i want it(drilling and making the sump). I didnt have this problem until i added the lighting, and then the algae came out. It is not out of control, but there is alot of it it seems. When my check gets in I am going to go to the LFS and grab a few more cleaner crew critters like snails and stuff, but is there maybe a small blenny or goby that will eat algae, maybe a small fish that likes hair algae. I am just looking at this as an opportunity to add a little more color and life to the tank.

Temp - 78
Salinity - 1.026
Nitrate - 0
Nitrite - 0
Ammonia - Really tiny
-It is late and i am too lazy to get the card out and see what it said, but it was close to 0)
PH - 8.0
Calcium - 400(somewhere around there, dont know how the test kit is)
Phosphate - 0

I dont have an Alkalinity test kit yet, but that is one of the next few things to get. Didn't come with the tank and i was short on cash after the initial purchase.

I know some of these may be zero because of the algae consuming it but I am alright with that right now. I also just added some live sand and the bloom came around the same time of that. Can anyone think why this happened. The light went on the tank about a week before the sand went in and i started noticing it the day after the sand. All I have in there is a Ocellaris Clown and 2 hermit crabs plus around 20-30 SMALL snails that came with the live rock i got from the person i bought the tank from. I also have a Rio 600 running my skimmer and 2 Koralia 1's at 400 gallons per hour. I am assuming flow is not the problem at around 50x per hour. Thanks in advance for the help.
