New to saltwater. Tank has been cycling for 2.5 to 3 weeks and i think I’m seeing a brown algae or diatom bloom. I used live cured rock when I stated the tank. I would think this is normal? Some people say to leave the lights off for 3-4 days and cover the tank completely so no light gets in? I stopped in at my local saltwater fish store and they gave me a water conditioner and a bacteria boost.
Do I just need to let it run its cycle? Should I get some snails?
Thanks for all the input and help
