Hi everyone,

Can somebody please identify this algae and how I can get rid of it? It comes back extremely quickly and is starting to take over my tank.

TIA :)

You might to need to give us some tank parameters, especially nitrate and phosphate
Also a close up would help.
Maybe have to mods move this over to the nuisance algae department, see what customer service says
