black algae

[roundman]

Only in my fuge on the surface on my cheato. What is it? where did it come from? and how do I get rid of it?

I've never heard of a "black" algae before. I've seen really dark cyano look "black"... which is what I suspect you're seeing. I get it in my fuge from time to time when I suddenly increase my feeding schedule. I've got a ton of it in my fuge right now as I've been literally dumping food into the tank since I got that achilles tang.
