Cichlids And Bba Black Out

[ballyclover]

I Have posted in the alga forum in regards to a nasty growth on my ocean rocks, pictures can be seen in that topic.
 
It would appear this maybe BBA and I cannot find a reason for its growth, other than maybe a I require more flow.
 
 
I need to create a total black out to see if this clears it, maybe 3-5 days. Will the cichlids be ok with no food etc for this long?
 
cheers

They should be just fine.

Black out will not kill BBA

I provided information in your other thread regarding BBA's cause and its removal.
