High flow algea? or Dinos?

[RamsReef]

Hi all,

I got this brown stuff growing where there is high light and massive flow.

The closer to the powerhead the thicker it is.

I don't know if it is the algea/dinos liking this or the fact that I never see my cuc or tangs up there because of the flow.

Vid attached let me hear your thoughts.

I dont think its dinos, but it's hard to tell. I don't think I have seen it before.

Not dinos. Looks like the early tank uglies I've had with new tanks. How old is the tank?

Could just be some hair algae that looks different due to the high flow.

Just uglies,

new tank.


Thank you

Wondering maybe I should turn my phead down, see if my grazers head up there.

I think they’ll get up there with the flow. I personally would leave the flow high.

Thanks, never seen one up there.

A lawnmower blenny would take care of it, or a few snails.
