I bought a used BioCube 29 and the previous owner left some of the sand. When I was looking at the tank , before I bought it, there were dark brown streaks on the sand. I didn't think much about it then, but now it's back (2 months). I don't think it's diatoms. It's rust brown, kind of stringy, sticks together and gets darker in the afternoon. What is it? Does it need to go? How? I have muddled as best I could through this forum and couldn't find it. Help and Thanks!
