Possibly dinos?

Water parameters:
PH- 8.0
Ammonia - 0ppm
Nitrite - 0ppm
Nitrate - 5-10ppm

2 ocellaris only.

ive cut my lights (AI PRIME 16HD)
Should I add the turbo start in again?

Could be dinos, or Cyanobacteria

When I had dinos it was more stringy looking, only way to get a 100% answer is looking at them under a microscope

Based on how new your tank looks and your start date i'm going to guess you just fired this tank up in the last few weeks. Diatoms are more than likely what they are and will likely disappear in the next couple of weeks.
edit: i just wanted to add that if your tank is cycled there is no longer any reason to be testing for Nitrite or Ammonia as the cycle itself is the formation of denitrifying bacteria that should remove any semblance of those from your tank. You should be into Nitrate country now.

I do not see Dino’s, maybe Diatoms, tank is to new.

You do realize that your tank is going to go through a variety of ugly phases the first year? It is best to leave lights off the firstb4 months to allow your tank to develop biodiversity and microfauna. This will make the ugly stages more manageable.

This is early stage dino but not that of which warrants an attack plan. Take a turkey baster and dislodge those areas loose and net or siphon up the loose matter.
Reduce white light intensity to a low intensity and add 1.5ml of liquid Bacteria per 10 gallons for 7-10 days.

Tried the baster - it ain’t moving. Bubbles are gone now. It’s tough to scrape as well.
