Hey Everybody,
I have a 10 gallon nano tank with a pair of clown fish and a couple of corals. The corals have been in the tank for about 2 weeks now and I am noticing that there is a purple algae growing on the rocks. Also, the sand seems to be growing this brown algae fairly quickly.
From what I read, some purple algae is good and some is bad? I just did a sand cleaning yesterday and I am already noticing more brown algae build up on the sand like I didn't do anything. Could someone look at this picture and let me know if my purple algae is good algae and why is my sand growing algae so quickly?
Thanks for everyones input.
