Red Turf Algae or something else?

MergeConflict · Aug 29, 2021

Hey y’all,

Trying to determine what this maroon algae is. Leaning towards red turf algae, but not sure. It’s not cyano it’s a not slimy- more velvety and it LOVES flow (it’s blanketing all high flow surfaces and power heads).

dKh: 10.15
Ca: 464
PO4: .1
NO3: < 3

Very well could be aka cotton candy algae. Get rid of it fast! Can be hell to deal with. Had a nasty outbreak in my tank:
