HOLY ALGAE

[Crowned_Sock]

I just got back from a four week trip and was letting my family and cousin take care of my tank. It is 29 gallons and has 2 clownfish, a royal gramma, and a YWG. I'm not even sure where to start with this, please decipher the pictures. Two positives though is that my water clarity is very good now and I'm starting to notice the beginning of coraline algae making a presence in the tank.

Looks like your rocks were spared! Get a flat kitchen pancake spatula and scoop all that algae off the sand in a few chucks, and do a water change.

That's not to bad at all. Agreed with Above and add some snails, don't see any in the pictures.

Algae is part of the vacation IMO. It looks like its all on the sand, so it should be easy to siphon the sand while performing a water change.
