RonTheGuy Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 I purchased this large live rock covered with green star polyps about 3 months ago now some purple plant or coral has also appeared. Now I see three little 1" branching purple trees which are very pretty. They wave in the water. Quote
Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 I agree, it looks like a macroalgae Quote
nvrEnuf Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Third vote for a macro. I haven't sen it before though....I want one! Ron, if you'd like to see an example of a skimmerless tank feel free to bring a cut of that guy over! Quote
RonTheGuy Posted February 22, 2015 Author Posted February 22, 2015 Ron, if you'd like to see an example of a skimmerless tank feel free to bring a cut of that guy over! I have had a skimmer less tank ... just has less fish closer to the real reef. Fyi I think it is a macro algae too ... I was hoping a red coral. Now I didn't taint the posting but the tank did have a red macro algae I purchased on ebay maybe 3 months ago then died within a few weeks. apparently it seeded the rock before dying? Quote
nvrEnuf Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 yes, that is very possible. it is also an indicator of age and (at least some) stability in your tank Quote
