I need an Algae ID please.
Tank is about three months old with a damsel, a starry blenny, 8 turbos and a couple colony's of zoas.
75 gallons
Penguin HOB filter with regular filters and 2 media filters ( 1 with carbon, 1 with Seachem PhosGuard)
Reef Octopus Classic 2000 HOB Protein Skimmer
2 165 watt LED Black Boxes
0 nitrates
This stuff looks reddish/brown and stringy. The strings so far have reached about 6 inches in length. Grows very quickly. Skimmer fills with red/brown liquid within 24 hours.
LFS guy said maybe Dinoflagellate....I really hope not.
Below is a video I took. Unfortunately it was after I cleaned the major stuff off, but shoud still provide an accurate representation....just imaging it 10 times worse.
