I have a new aquarium that’s probably three weeks or more. I noticed there’s some stuff growing and idk if it’s bad or good or what ever! So what I’m asking is can you see anything in this video that is good or normal.

Welcome to R2R!
Stuff is going to grow as your tank continues to cycle… your tank still looks really new. The green on the rocks is the start of some of the algae that will eventually coat your rocks/tank. It’s a good thing! Snails and crabs will eat it and then you’ll eventually start to get some coralline algae growing. You’ll probably have some sponges start popping up too. This website is a great resource for identifying all the weird things that happen while your tank matures. Happy Reefing!
