cee219 has fishy dreams
Brown gunk

I just set up my new 55g aquarium in about March. I did a fishless cycle and added five small zebra danios about a month ago (then I found out I was moving across town and delayed my stocking).

Just over the past two weeks I've noticed brown gunk on my silk plants and on my terracotta pots. Infact it looks like I lit my silk plants on fire in places. I have not a clue what this is, and I don't remember ever reading up on it. Is it some kind of brown algae? Should I be worried or do anything about it? It just kind of surprised me. If anyone wants pictures of I would be glad to take them, but if someone can identify this without them I'd be grateful. Thanks!
