Algae

[wowdude11]

I have this brown algae all over my sand and glass. Cleans off easy but always come back within a couple hours. It’s covering my corals and effecting them. Phosphate at .08. Any advice

It’s a fairly new tank so it could be diatoms

+1. 4 months, that’s a fresh tank. Have you built a strong clean up crew? A clean up crew helps in controlling algae from getting out of hand, they keep things tidy.
