2 months in so I ramped up Mitras lights from 0-30% over the past 2 weeks. Starting to see some bright green algae. I was surprised to see some “leafy” green growth though. One is an inverted cone shaped petal - no stem. Just this translucent green stuff.
Assuming this is all part of the uglies, but just to be safe, I thought I’d post a pic. Normal?
Just have a couple clowns, and tons of pods in there right now and dosing phyto. External Refugium has had lighting for a while and has a lot of algae and small ball of chaeto. Nitrates have been running 5-10 ppm and Phosphate ~0.02 ppm.
