Hello community.
I think these are diatoms but I thought I would get some confirmation from the experts here.
the tank is redsea 425xl (about 90gallon dt)
Tested the nitrates (14) and phosphates (.05) today. Bio load is still minimal (2 clowns, one purple firefish and a CBB). Couple of test Zoas. It tanks is about 8 weeks old. The lights are 2x XR15 g5 which are still in acclimatization mode.
there is a skimmer and an algae scrubber on the system. Though the algae scrubber hasn’t really taken off yet(just a green layer, and mostly slimy algae)
I am not really planning on doing much, and wait it out. Maybe clean the substrate through siphoning?
What is the collective wisdom?
cheers.
