Hey all,

What is this teal algae showing up? I don’t mind it, but is it harmless?

It’s showing up at the same time my purple and pink coraline algae started to show.

Thanks!

Cyanobacteria it can come in many forms either red slime like or a green/teal color. I would recommend on adding more goo to lower phosphates
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
