Looking for help identifying if this is a diatom bloom or cyno or even Dino.. I've read a bunch on these three can't seem to find any that look exactly what's growing in my tank.. I'm on day 8. No skimmer YET 40g cube with 15g wet dry system 40lbs live sand 20lbs dry rock.. Looks like yellowish to dark brown. Spots all over my rock and sand bed, some of them have little bubbles sitting on top of the sand. Can only test for salinity ATM unfortunately which is at 1.025 and 78degrees. My buddy is coming over Thursday to do tests with his kits and help me install my skimmer. Also can't figure out how to post pics doing this post from my cell phone
 
I had a picture with just my MH but i can't get pictures to upload for some reason. It keeps saying failure. Suppose I can wait a few more days to see what it does maybe I'll run my lights a little shorter of time until I can test my parameters more in depth. "Fingures crossed"
