Phyto overdose?

[Butuz]

Guys, take a look at these pics please. Seeing green (algea I assume) on the rocks. Not hairy, like bright green dust. I overdosed phyto 3 days ago, could that be causing it? Should I let it stay like that or deal with it? If so, clean up crew or somethig else? Otherwise, no diatoms or anything else, the water is crystal clear too. The cycling completed two weeks ago, nitrites and ammonia are zero. I have no livestock or any corals yet, want to mature the tank for another month. Thanks.

Looks like cyano to me. Could be from the Phyto overdose but I don’t think it is the actual Phyto.

That looks normal to me and will soon cover all of that bleached rock. I went thru the same thing when I first started.

Thanks, guys, so just ride it out, no actions needed?

 

[eb_reef]

Yep. soon it will cover everything the light hits and get a deeper green

Cyano and with bare rock you have nothing to compete with it yet.

Are you dosing phyto to help mature the pod population or for some other reason?

Correct, using it to feed 10,000 pods from algeabarn.
