From that picture I’d say Dino’s or cyano.. most likely Dino’s thou as it’s not a deep burgundy color.

Thank you for your reply do you think I should does hydrogen peroxide

How are your nitrates and phosphates? Check to make sure that they are not 0. Dinos can flourish in an ultra low nutrient environment.

Thank you for your reply do you think I should does hydrogen peroxide

I’m not sure what it is for sure by those pics but it would be my best guess from my experience.. as for dosing…. It wouldn’t hurt but I don’t know that it will cure it for you.. wouldn’t hurt to try.. it seems everyone uses a microscope any more to Id this stuff exactly.. if it’s cyano then chemiclean will cure it..

My phosphates are zero and my nitrates are five 1025 on the salinity alkaline is 8.5 a run my temp at 77
I just purchased a microscope so will have further details thanks guys
