I bought a orange sponge about 5 days ago. This morning he has red algae on the upper half. Is it too close to the lights? What can I do?

Thanks, Kevin

Is this algae or cyanobacteria ?
In my thinking it's probably the second, just aim a powerhead at it and *gently* blow it off, do not remove the sponge into air do this underwater.
