Brown alge?

[billyjoe]

I have brown alge growing on the sand and a little on the glass and rock work. How do i go about getting rid of it. It makes the tank ugly. Thanks for any help

how are you chemicals? you may also have a dead spot where water sits in that area. also what kind of lights are you running?

did your tank just finish its cycle? thats a normal part of the process .
