    Here Are the lovely new pics off my purple slime tank! I hope people will now understand why im so worred, im worried it could be toxic to us as it releases bubbles its every where it even floating in the top off my tank water like a oil slick!
    the site yet again will not let me put the pictures on it! it only loads up the pic off my rubbish camera! not my husbands canon camera we to the detailed pics with!
    anyone who wants a go at iding it email me and ill mail you the pictures
    Thanks k

    I would guess that if it is blanketing your sand, it's cyano...

    Here is another pic of my mystery algae.
