I have been fighting to figure out what this black stuff on my Anubias is. I presume its algae, but i have 0 phosphate, Nitrate, nitrite, & ammonia. The canister filter has been cleaned and replaced with fresh media. Not Pictured: I have 8 Otoc Cats and a few Amano Shrimp that wont eat this stuff. What is it and how do i get rid of it? Ive tried cleaning it and it comes back, the Hygro stem plants are also getting this "algae" on their leaves even after pruning and removal of contaminated leaves. Side note, my Rocks and Driftwood appear to have Red Algae, could this be the same?
