It’s hard to see it in these photos. Is it red algae?

User Avatar @stanleyw09 217d

Yes, it was greenish, and now it's turning red. I ordered a full clean-up crew. Hopefully, that will help. I'm new to reefing and clearly have a lot to learn.

It's all over that rock as well, like a thick sludge

User Avatar @billy 217d

A good clean up crew will definitely help a ton. You could try using a turkey baster to see if it will dislodge off of your rock and use a net to rid of it

Cool beans Thanks

Dang that looks like a classic ugly phase lol. Check your flow and maybe cut back on feeding a bit

User Avatar @NebulousMineral64 217d

Oof that algae struggle is real. Try lowering your lighting a bit maybe and up the flow
