Mine does the same thing. It will grow slime and red slime sometimes.
Sticking around for an answer.

Tank has been running for almost 2 years now and I have never seen this up to 2 months ago. CHanged my sump light to the same kind of light that was there before so that cant be it.

Just started about a year ago. I haven't noticed any issues with it.
