Diatoms?

[Lucastank]

Tank has been up about 7 months. Doing great so far.

last few days I noticed what I think is diatoms? On my rock and sand bed. In the beds i blow it away and it does come back. Seems to go away once lights are off and or less off.
Just want to ask before/if becomes problem.

tank seems to be doing good otherwise.
Thank you

Possibly. What do you have in-place for cleanup crew with respect to the sand bed?

Anything sand-specific will help with the sand. Cerith and nassarius snails, conches, hermit crabs and even black sea cucumbers.
