Hello from Massachusetts

Hi All!

I am a newbie to salt water aquariums, and have been cycling for about 3 weeks now. I was at my LFS and another customer recommended this site to me. Looks like it will be a great help.

Hello to all out there!! And no worries, I will be picking your brains soon!

Welcome to 3reef Sara!!!
Youll problably thank that customer a million times, this place is awesome, youll see!

 

Welcome to 3reef, glad to have you aboard.

 

Thank you already!

I am thanking this customer already. I am trying to be as patient as possible with my new tank, and noticed yesterday some brown algae on the sand. Then by the time I got home from work, noticed there was a lot more.

From my reading on this site, I am crossing my fingers and hoping this is just one of those new tank cycling things. I will also be reducing my light as well.

 

Welcome to 3reef!!!

That sounds like diatoms, nothing to worry about in the cycling stage of your tank.
