    Diatoms are brown algae that often appears when the aquarium was set up new and is just in the cycle process, this may take up to a few weeks. But they are not limited to this. Even in older systems it can reappear when a lot of  rock was moved or new added. They might cover large areas of sand, rock glass, pretty anything, and make the aquarium look...

      They are very common in the aquarium hobby and grow more when the nutrient levels in the tank ( Primary Nitrate and Phosphate ) are a bit higher. They are not harmful and can be easily removed just by cleaning the glass ( Our Clown Fishes love to eat it, when we clean the glass towards them :)).

        This algae is as well known as brown slime algae. It needs urgent attention as this micro algae can be harmful to your tank inverts, like snails, as it releases toxins into the water.

          This is often mistaken as a algae but it is actually bacteria. It is very common in new set up tanks and not harmful to fishes, but it can effect some type of corals.

            Green Hair Algae are unfortunately a common problem when the Nitrate and Phosphate levels in the aquarium water are to high. Once they appeared it is very hard to get rid of them and unfortunately they can overgrow your corals if not taken care off.

              These unwanted micro algae often come as hitchhikers into the marine aquarium, as they can be attached to corals or rock. We recommend to inspect every addition to your marine tank, and if spotted to remove them carefully without popping them.

                Bryopsis is a green nuisance algae which looks like a small fern. It is often mistaken as green hair algae, but as you can see on the picture at ithe closeup it is easy to identify. It comes often with liverock and can spread quite quickly in the marine aquarium.
