I've had my tank set up for about three weeks now with no livestock yet. I heavily planted from the start and my plants are really going well. The dwl is going like crazy but I have this algae growing on my dwarf sag and on nothing else.
At first I thought it was bba starting but now I'm thinking maybe a filament or thread algae. I'm running cfl for 7 hours substrate is mgops capped with pool filter sand. I'm hoping this is just part of my cycle.
