Algae

Different algae can be harmful to the environment. Different types of algae can give off different signs if it's overabundant. For example, volvox gives off a fishy odor and anabaena gives off a pig pen smell.

Rivularia has a slimy coating around it and it is a filament.

Spirogyra gives off a grassy odor when overabundant and it is also a filament.

Anabaena is classified as cyanobacteria and gives off a pig pen odor when overabundant.
