    So I have brown spots on my aquarium glass and sand on the bottom of my tank so what do I need to do in order to get rid of it or is it something that will go away with time ?

    Sounds like diatoms which is a normal algae cycle. Give it time

    Hiya

    Yeap, sounds like diatoms. Time for a partial water change and a clean up crew.

    Hiya,

    A mixture of different types of snails and some hermits.
