This stuff is dotted all around my tank. I set up the tank in january. Is this bubble algae? How do I get rid of it? I have no fish in the tank it's fallow for right now but it's already cycled. it only has 2 crabs 2 snails and this gsp in it right now. I drop a little bit of food in the tank every few days to keep the nitrates up a little cause otherwise they hit 0. Is this causing algae to grow? Should I stop dropping food in without fish?

Color reminds me of cyano mixed with some hair or turf algae. How long was the rock cycled for?
