Hello, I have been on here for a while but I just recently made an account and this is my first post. I have a red sea reefer 250 that has been up for about 3 years and I just recently have had a strange algae that has formed. My phosphates are 0.03 and my nitrates are at about 0. I was thinking it was dinos at first but these results have confused me. It doesnt seem as dark in color as dinos but it does look similar. Anyone think they can ID this for me? Sorry for the lighting in advance, LEDs don’t cooperate well on camera.

Was a little stringy a few days ago but i blasted it with a turkey baster which helped some.
