Hi all,

A few weeks ago I replaced canister filters (Fluval fx6 to Fluval 407) in my 75 gallon tank and got a new light (Finnex planted+ to Fluval 3.0). Now I'm getting a new type of algae i've never seen before - see the pictures below.

Can anyone identify the algae? If you know what kind of algae, any tips for getting rid of it?

I do weekly water changes and transferred biomax from old filter to new filter and haven't seen any cycling issues.

Thanks!
