At first thought it was just cyano but now thinking something else. It grows in long strings. Attached is one area but also have it growing on side glass in really long singular strings. All in flow areas. Nothing is on bottom of my bare bottom. It does have bubbles on stings. Looks reddish but wondering if more because of lights any ideas

could definitely be dino’s.

what are your nitrate and phosphate?
Was thinking that just now! it appeared after nitrates hit zero and phosphate hit .01. This was after (now no one judge lol) finished a vibrant round. If it is it is the kind that doesn’t go away at night still there in morning when lights come on. I got nitrate and phos up now. What can I do? Thanks

try to siphon out as much as you can. at night, you could dose beneficial bacteria. you could also lower your white, green and red lights (to about 5%) and dose phyto.

edit: allowing nitrate and phosphate to rise will also help some
