Hello, I was wondering if this is diatom algae that is growing in my tank. It is brown/red in color and is growing on the glass and on the sand bed. I did some research on the net and found mixed answers about if it's good or bad. At this point I'm scrubbing it off the glass but not to much do about it being on the sand. I was curious as to what stage my tank is in at this point in the cycle. It's been about 30 days since i put the water in. Live bio-sand was used and 40 or so pounds of cured live rock was added the same day. I added 2 small fish a week or so after first adding the water, sand and rock. My levels are:
Nitrate=0
Nitrite=0
Ammonia=0
pH=8.4
I was wondering when will be it ok to start adding some corals. I have some good sized purple musrooms in there and they seem to be doing fine. I've been adding B-Ionic calcium buffer system just about daily. Any help would be great.
