Default Starting to get brown algae
G'day,

I am starting to get brown tinge to my coral gravel, the tank is only 12days old and its not cycled is it normal to get that brown tinge/algae so soon? the tank is full with cycled rock if that will help

and will it correct itself once cycling has happened?

and what will eat it?

Regards Darren
