Algae in my hydroponic system :(

[mmosley01]

Hello everyone, I need advice on how to get rid of algae in my hydroponic system as well as making it hopefully stay gone. My setup is pretty simple its made of pvc pipes, metal, 100W grow lights, foam boards for planting and of course the filters and tank. My ph for the system fluctuates sometimes it's around 6, and other times its around 7, I'm also not sure how to control that. I've replaced my filters many times as well as completely cleaned the system but it still comes back, if anybody has any tips they would be greatly appreciated!

Maybe a little late, but make sure that no light can touch ( shine on ) the water. When cleaning, clean as much as possible the algae by hand, then clean with clean water, then use hydrogen peroxide and let your system run for a day or so to clean and remove the last algae. HTH
