Brown spots on bubble coral

[Hunter90 HD]

Good evening fellow reefers,

Apologies for the not so great picture, but I have noticed some small brown spots over my bubble coral.

Been there for a few weeks and the coral is not looking distressed, coral inflated as normal but naturally concerned..

Can someone please advise what this could be ?

Water parameters are stable and at my target parameters...

Thanks in advance,

Lee

Clearly, we can't see what you're referring to. It would be best if you took another photo in white light, and possibly circled what it is you're concerned about.

Only brown stuff I know of and hate so much is diatoms... But as Erin stated we cannot see anything in the picture.. maybe circle the spots or a arrow pointing to them

Not when they cover your sand bed smh I'm trying to get rid of them as of now. I know they are beneficial but when the whole sand bed is covered in them it's horrible looking lol

But think of all the carbon they're removing!

And you know that's why I really haven't tried to hard to remove them. Letting the tank go through it's natural cycle

Seriously, I think if we all had vats of cyano and diatoms in our backyards, we could beat global warming

You may be on to something lol and it's more of the unattractive look diatoms.give my tank that I don't like. Nothing is unhappy except my poor eyes lol!!!
