Hello all!

I'm getting what looks to be diatoms coating some of my plant leaves. Is there anything I can do to help get rid of it, or should I just ride out the diatoms till the plants are more established.

Thank you in advance,
HoldenOn
 
Can you post a photo or two? I have seen brush algae thought to be diatoms, so we need to know just what this is. Does it easily come off with your fingertips, or not? How long has the tank been running? What is the light data, and are you using any plant additives (if yes, which)? Water changes, are they regular?
