I have this algae in my tank for quite some time now. Any ideas on what it is or how to beat it? Seems to form long stringy parts as well as form almost a film or "webbing" over the rock. Color is brown. Let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you.

That's for the reply. I was thinking that as well but based off of the color it could also be dino's. I'm not sure but it is unsightly.Looks like early stages of cyano
I'd lean towards Dinos, cyano is mostly deep purply/red and doesnt form long strings.That's for the reply. I was thinking that as well but based off of the color it could also be dino's. I'm not sure but it is unsightly.
You can knock this out before it takes hold of your tank. Vetteguy has good suggestions to remedy the situation. Feed more, dose neophos and neonitro to get numbers up before the dinos get worse. Siphon up what you can. You want to change sock daily if you blow algae into the water column. Sock will filter it out too.Tank is 4 months old. It's my first tank. Yes Phosphate and Nitrate are basically 0. I've turned off the skimmer for now and will hold off on cleaning the filter socks.
