ug.mac Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'm starting to get these algae that growing on rock, powerhead, even stand bed after switched from vinegar to ATS for 2 weeks. They however look like what's growing on the ATS screen. My tank is about 6 month new, all dry rock and sand. Cycled with pure ammonia and Prodibio bacteria. I'm wondering if I should do nothing to let them go through their cycle, or take ATS off line and continue to use vinegar/GFO. Any suggestions? Link to comment
cromag27 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Can you take a photo with just whites on? Link to comment
ug.mac Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Can you take a photo with just whites on? I use Blue+/Fiji/Actinic T5HO without white bulb. I will try to swap to 6500K bulb. Link to comment
cromag27 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Always good to id the algae before starting treatment. hard to tell what it is in your photo. Kinda looks like the dreaded B , but I don't want to jump to conclusions. lol. Link to comment

I have to say my rock was clean before I switched to ATS. Link to comment
