My tank is relatively new, and I ran it through the nitrogen cycle. I brought my fish over from my other tank and I canāt remember when this happened, but literally overnight I had this overgrowth of algae. At first I thought brown algae but it doesnāt really come off that easy but Iām thinking thatās maybe because my ornaments have crevices which make it hard to reach. Itās not fuzzy like black beard pictures Iāve seen. So is it diatom? It hasnāt affected all of my ornaments, for instance, my artificial coral is large and itās really only affected the top of it where the light is hitting it. I have an air pump in my tank too I thought it was getting adequate water flow. I also just recently got a new filter, the aqua clear fluval one, which Iāve heard is better than the one I had.
