After a few weeks of having my new aquarium set up, brown diatoms have spread across my sand and rocks. After reading the posts I could find about this, I've discovered that this is normal for a new set-up.

Can someone tell me approximately how long this lasted with your tank?

Should I be attempting to scrape or rinse it off the rocks when water changes are performed?

I seem to remember that it lasted about a month or so.
