Hey everyone I’ve had my tank cycling for 2 months now and I’ve been pretty on top of cleaning my rock scape of algae and watching my Params. Today after work I noticed a ton of rusty colored algae plus some bubbles trapped into them is this diatoms or Dino’s and what should I do to solve this problem?

At 2 months, it would make sense to have diatoms. It's a normal phase for that age of tank. Monitor your no3/po4 and make sure they don't zero out... that will help keep the dinos away while other algaes take hold.

Thank you I’ll keep an eye on both
