I'm sure this has been covered before but I'm struggling to find an accurate answer given what I'm seeing in my tank. So, tank is only 3+ months old, and definitely still stabilizing everything. All my readings check out, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 1-2 nitrate. Dont have a phosphate test yet, so there may be something there. Regardless, I cannot find what this algae is, what eats it (granted i haven't bought anything as I need to know a good answer first), and it seems to be slowly spreading/increasing. Would love some thoughts, and apologies if this is an real easy one. If it helps, they are all singular, and brownish in color, and they lightly appeared right about the time my diatom bloom did (or that's what I assume the brown on the rock is). They dont come off with light suction, so I'm breaking out the toothbrush or cleanup crew accordingly. Thanks!
