RE: of calcium and clams (was something about salts)
Hi Folks,
Silicates aside, brown algae often colonizes aquariums faster than green
algae or (red algae in salt water). Green algae eventually out competes it
under most circumstances. So, newer people on this list you should not panic
when your NEW killie tank turns brown. It will eventually turn green given
time.
Furthermore light intensity and duration have some effect on which algae
will be dominant and for how long. I concur with Allen it is more prevalent
in tanks which are heavily populated.
Best regards,
~RJ~

However, brown algae are most prevalent in less than
pristine environmental conditions. So they indicate
that something is out of whack.
