Is this good or bad?

[Dan321]

Hi all. I have this growing on my back glass, should I be getting rid of it?

 

[eaquintero]

Is it red? Might be cyano

 

[Dan321]

Yes it definitely red

Is it rough or smooth to the touch it looks like pink coralline algae.

Judging brown algae. It’s Cyano.
Increase your flow over there. Up your water changes.
Can we see whole tank shot?

 

[Dan321]

It’s smooth to touch, just wipes off the glass

 

[bsr2430]

[Dan321]

Definitely red slime algea. Get some red slime remover asap unless you want that stuff everywhere in your tank.

I have some chemiclean that I used once. Would this be the stuff to get rid of it?
