Hey guys, getting this algae on my HC. My tank is a 5 gallon with a finnex planted+ with co2 diffused at 1 bps.

What type of algae is it and what can I do about it?

It looks like early stages of green string algae. I had it too in my nano and spread all over my dhg and moss. I tried manually removing it but ended up uprooting my hc so I just trashed it. I suppose you could try the one two punch method until you figure out the cause of the algae
