Hello,
I just setup a 46Gal tank about 2 weeks ago. It is 75lbs of sand (10lbs of live), 15lbs of live rock and about 100lbs of base rock. I have 4x96W power compact bulbs on it (1 Actinic 12hours per day, 3 10k on for 8hours.) In the last 3 days I have noticed a brown aglae growing on the surfaces of rocks and sand. Can anyone tell me what this is, and what I can do about it? Thanks!
