What's on my glass

[Elo500]

2 mo old 120g. In the last few days I had an explosion of something that's covering all my glass. Most are single thread clear something and others have branches coming off them. It's not aptasia. What is it and how do I get rid of them? My coral and 2 clown seem happy so far. Sorry for the poor picture but hard to get camera to focus on the glass.

I can't really tell, but looks like some type of algae growth. 2 months is kind of early for coral. It's recommend to let your tank stabilize before adding coral.

I agree that it looks to be some sort of algae, but I'd say 2 months is fine for corals. It's not the age of the tank, but the experience of a reefer thats going to make the difference.

I'd much rather fill a 2 week old tank wiht coral with JBNY running it, versus letting a newbie manage a 10 year old tank

Definitely algae. Get those nutrients in check sir.
