Butcherman's 4ft tank

Update - Custom Hood

Right here is a little update.
I am making a custom hood for the tank with lights.

lights are:
2 x 150W MH
2 x 54w T5 (10 000k and Antic)
2 x 1w blue LED (moon lights)
I just need to tidy up the wiring and set up the timers, then its ready for the tank.

Hi butcherman! Really nice setup you have, looking good! Have you managed to get a defnite ID on the maroon/red "bubble algae" yet? i've also noticed a small bit growing in my tank but haven't been able to find out for sure what it is as it looks different from the Google images.
 
There are about 4 different stains or red algae that i can see.
The most prolific is what they call grape macro algae (Botryocladia) the other nemastoma macroalgae which is just in front of the sun sun pump and off to the right in the back is Red Garcilaria.

I am not sure what the one all the way on the right is called but i think it might be something more like sea weed.
