What algae do I have?
Came home 1 week after vacation and the tank (4 months old) has been covered with green, brown and dark red algae. OMG.
I know the tank is new so I should expect diatoms. It looks like I also have cyano in addition to the usual green film algae?
The sand bed is ok. Only the top rocks have the dark red algae.
Maybe I turned up the white light (5 hrs a day) too much before I left?
Jesus Christ, running a saltwater tank is definitely not easy.
