Can you help identify this type of algae. I have read thru the descriptions and pics of the most common types and this algae? on the leaves doesn't seem to quite fit. It has been there for several weeks - it does not create tufts or threads or hairs. It is dark colored-light to dark brown, hard to get off leaves and grows mainly on the broad leaf plants. I have a bluer.greener type that has now started to coat some of the gravel.
I have been dosing with micro and PMDD this last 2 weeks, just after the start of this outbreak and I can't bring it in to control.
40 gallon tank
130 wpg CF
CO2 pressurized system
moderately planted tank
Ammonia and Nitrite 0
PH 7.0
Kh 6
Gh medium
I don't know my nitrate and phosphate level and feel this may be necessary to get this under control. But I would like to know what type this is so I can read more about it.
