Diatoms, Cyano or Dinoflagellates

Oh correction my nitrate swings from 5-10 ppm... but it rose up to 15 once due to my ex-maid over feeding it while I was away. then after several wc it dropped to 5-10 again. should I dose purple up to encourage more coranaline algea to grow? But how will that solve the problem of my brown stuff? -

those are the ones below... They arent live rocks..theyre dead rocks. I use dead rocks as a base to place my live rocks on. These diatoms are growing on my dead rocks and at the back of the tank and on the glass. -

Diatoms, Cyano or Dinoflagellates
Marine_fanaticz replied to Gouldian's topic in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby
Still thinking if its diatoms or dinoflagellate. took some pictures or them. what happen was that i left for an overseas trip for two weeks, in which my tank had already been running for 3 months. at that time my tank had only one clownfish and no corals. My ex-maid then without consulting me, overfed the fish. When i came back,I saw fish food floating around and my woodblock skimmer which is usually useless had foam which was very very dark brown!Thankfully my clown still alive> i did an immediate 40%WC and 10%WC two days later. Then i continued to do my 10%weekly WC. However, I noticed that these stuff started showing up. (which i strongly suspect due to high nitrates from the nutrients of the overfeeding. two weeks have passed and these stuff are still here. I did a 10% WC yesterday also but looks like theres not very much effect. Worst of all i recently added zoas into my tank which are very healthy but now i have no choice but to leave the lights on for their growth. My clownfish looks very healthy. any advise on how to get rid of these stuff. btw i only use pure distilled water from NTUC "LIFE". thx:) -

Diatoms, Cyano or Dinoflagellates

Hi guys... my tank have been running for about 4 months and I think I have a case of Dinoflagellates. they look like tiny short brown stuff with tails and have attatched themselves to my glass and sand bed . earlier the above mentioned to lower PO4. I've stumbled upon this product "goodbye po4" however, in currently keeping zoas. Can this product be used? Thanks:) -

Need help in selecting LED lightset
Marine_fanaticz replied to Firestarter's topic in Product Reviews
AquaZonic Super Bright LED.... Is this the stock lighting for the OF34l? -
Dont think this light is good enough... a bit too dim already. dosent bring out the true colours the the zoas. When you use the blue light alone, really dim.
