Hey everyone!

I've been gone for a couple of days....(certified self defence instructor now)...but now for the update.

The tank is looking good....but I have some sort of brown build up on my return and overflow box. But nothing on my rock or sand? Is this beginning of my algea bloom?



Steve!

yeehaw now the real fun begins. a month or so of brwon algae yum yum.. after that you get a month or so of green algae. even yummier. and after THAT, you get to be the proud owner of cyano and hair and bubble alagaes :funny:

seriously though, the brown is normal, you are right on track imo.

hopefully you dont have to go through all the others, though, from what i a mlearning, everyone does at some point
