Hello again,
I'm new to reefing, I just started/ cycled my tank it has been going for 3 weeks now,
I'm wondering if the algea I'm getting is from not being a fully established tank, will it run its course?
Or is there something I should do before this algea completely takes over my tank,
It has plagued me with a green/brownish tinge on the glass, I can see littler strands of turf/GHA (I think)
I have added 5 ninja star snails, and 2 blue legged hermits, tho there not doing all that much
Tank is redsea reefer 170
Skimmer is taking forever to break in so it just constantly overflows in the my filter sock
I had got some old rock for the LFS I bought the tank from
I'm going bare bottom (trying for SPS dominant tank)
Tomorrow I'm buying a glass cleaner so I can get a better picture
It's hard to see it in these photos but tomorrow I'll post better ones
I don't know if this is normal for a new tank and it will run its course? Or if I should take action
