Got patches of what looks to be moss starting to grow on driftwood. It's localized on two pieces of wood under the highest light half of the tank. Tank is running co2, led lighting, dual t5 lighting, and dosing 6 different liquid ferts as well as root tabs and flourish tabs in substrate. Plants are flourishing. What do you think it is? If its a harmless moss I'd like to keep it. View attachment 921716View attachment 921717

It's hard to tell from the images, but IMO it looks like the start of hair algae. I had a driftwood piece in my old planted tank that started to grow what looked like natural moss, but when I added a true siamese algae eater he went to town on it which told me it was green hair algae.
