Aquarium Advice Regular
Hi All,
I have noticed over the past weeks a couple of strange growths. The first picture is of a big purple spot, about 2x2 inch across. At first I thought it was the coloration returning to the fiji rock, but after wafting the rock to clean it, I noticed it tear near the top.
The second picture is of something fuzzy growing at the base of one of my rocks. I thought it was dinoflagellates, but there aren't any bubbles in them and they're easy to blow off. Also my snails seem to be doing fine. I'm not sure what it is? Dinoflagellates? Aiptasia?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
BTW my parameters are decent. Zero nitrites and ammonia, 10-20ppm nitrates. I only keep fish, so I don't really monitor anything else.
