I have a pinkish/red growth coming on the underside of my rocks where there is no light and no other growth whatsoever. Does anyone have any idea what this might be. I know this isn't a lot of info and I have tried to get a pic but none will turn out good enough to make anything out.
 
Sounds like Cyano bacteria to me. What are your ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels at?
 
Ammonia and nitrites are zero and nitrates are 10-15. Been reading online and believe they may be homotrema rubrum.
