This green leaf looking algae? what is it? 40Gal breeder, up and running 9 weeks. I know im still in the ugly phase, i dont remember having this looking algae ever. Green and red hair algae is present as well and being managed. CUC 10 blue legs, peppermint, 3 nassarius, 4 margarita, 3 astrea. Coral beauty angel, 2 clowns, lawnmower blenny, diamond goby, six line wrasse. My parameters are all in line besides Phosphate ranging between .16-.26. Started tank with dry rock. likely around 16lbs in it currently.
