    My tank is about 2 weeks into the cycle. It's a 29 biocube. Today I noticed this weird green stuff on my rocks. Is it algae? It looks like someone took a marker to my rock.[​IMG][​IMG]

    Yes, it's algae. You'll get many kinds as you cycle and for the first year or so after. Welcome to the hobby!
