Can you post a pic or a link to a YouTube vid? can’t see vid on the phoneThis fluffy grey stuff appears all over my rocks and sand. If I stir it up it comes back in a few days. In some spots it is browny red but mostly grey fluff.
My nitrates are at 25ppm and phos is 0.5. Working on bringing this down as I was dosing si for dinos.

It’s hard to see but I believe they may be photosynthetic dinoflagellates, do they go to an almost rusty brown almost copper alike?Blues make it hard to see but it's just like grey fluff and some spots are red/brown but not string like dinos. So I'm lost. Fluffy detritus I'd describe it as. If I brush the rocks it comes off. But soon comes back in a few days
Only in some small spots. But mainly grey. It doesn't look rusty and slimy. More clumpy and fluffy. I was dosing lots of silicates to rid them. This looks a different colour and texture to the dinos I had.It’s hard to see but I believe they may be photosynthetic dinoflagellates, do they go to an almost rusty brown almost copper alike?
Nutrients seem fine to me just work on keep them stable for now.White lights on. My nitrate is 25ppm and phosphate is 0.5 that I'm working on
0.5 not 0.05 phosphateNutrients seem fine to me just work on keep them stable for now.
I don't have any due to my picasso trigger. I may need to try a handful and see how they get on. I had been dosing silicates heavily so this may be causing it. I'm running a ton of gfo.What’s your clean up crew like? Looks like the end or near end of diatoms. How long the tank been running now?

Yes,silica will be feeding the diatoms, and the grey and yellow look like kripto sponges. Did you had hair algae to?I don't have any due to my picasso trigger.

Not much hair algae at all no. The grey is everywhere shaded or in light areas.Yes,silica will be feeding the diatoms, and the grey and yellow look like kripto sponges. Did you had hair algae to?
is the grey and yellow mainly on shaded areas?
