I'm new to saltwater fish and we just put up an aquarium 3 weeks ago and i cycled it with damsels . Lately probaly within the last week or so a lot of algae has been growing on the glass and brownish on the sand and also along the rocks. I have a yellow tang in there now and he picks at it sometimes but i know he can't eat all that up, my questions were is that normal to grow algae that quick? within about a 3 week span maybe a tiny bit more? or is that unhealthy and is something wrong? also if that's normal what would you recommend to get rid of some of the algae without harming the fish or disturbing them to much? I dont think my yellow tang can eat that much algae. thank you!
