Diatoms

[zeliflush]

I have a question about diatoms, since there not harmful should I just let them grow and then clean it when they start to disappear.

Also I’ll assume the green is the start of gha but online says it’s green coraline what’s your opinion ?

Just to clarify I know the tank is brown but everything tests perfectly fine so it’s no harm to the fish :)

How old is the tank, and do you have any CUC in there?

If I was to take a guess around 45 days cuc wise there is nothing other then 2 brittle starfish and 2 other starfish (no idea what they are) there’s also some slug like thing. I don’t want to add a cuc until I know there is plenty of food for them. Am I ready to add some hermits and snails ?

In a new tank, there's nothing you can or should do about it except not use tap water. :)
