My 55 Gallon saltwater tank is just ten days old. I have a wet/dry system, some live sand and a couple of live rocks.
Unfortunately, when I purchased my set-up, the store clerk told me I could introduce fish within a couple of days.
So....he sold me two tangs, two clowns, a wrasse and a mandarin. After researching about mandarins, I found that was a huge mistake. That's one of the reasons I decided to introduce some live rock.
Anyway, day 10 my tank is beginning to develop brown algae spots in the sand and on the dead rocks/shells. Is this normal??
What can I do to prevent it. Do I want to prevent it? Are there fish I can buy that will clean my tank??
