I'm pretty sure on the second pic being diatoms. That would mean the other one would have to be as well...but orange?
 
Thats what I figured...I wanted to be sure though. I have never seen them so bright! I knew it wasn't cyano, but man that color. Now that I'm over the color, it needs to go away.

Get a phosphate reactor and diatoms and cyno will be something you used to have.
 
Ugh that put me in a bad mood lol. I have a dual reactor. It is DOA due to having a leak in my plumbing. Came home from work on Wednesday to my sump being empy and my tank almost overflowing... I need to get my sump back up and running.
