Haha don't worry, you're on the top of my list of "who should I call to help me move in the tank/stand"
I have been assured by a few people that it is in fact just diatoms and I'm freaking out like every newbie reefer does, lol.
Going to keep the lights off for a few days and run the UV several hours/day. Will brush the rocks on Sunday just before the water change.
I would like to introduce some coralline, any ideas where I might get some flakes?

There's always this:

(I don't have experience with it!)

Or you can "introduce" coralline by adding my live rock lol. $50 per rock

Glad to hear that someone else has a lot of Diatoms. Was kinda wondering about my own tank, but like usual the answer is just wait!
