Hi guys!

It’s finally growing algae! I have the urge to clean it so badly but from what I’m told that’s just part of the beginning part of having a salty tank. #krustytank

I’m super new to the hobby does anyone know what happens after this stage?

All kinds of "ugly" algaes are gonna pop up soon. Then once they fade away it should be smooth sailing!
