The tank is about 14 months old. I have the lights on for 12 hours a day. 6 HO fluorescents. Here is another pic.

I see a Gyre mounted on the ceiling.

Time for a Photobucket or Flikr account to upload pics me thinks.

I had some of that recently and got rid of it by adding some Trochus snails to eat it and increasing the dosage of Foz Down to get rid of Phosphate in the tank. 2 weeks later it's gone.
