AlexMorsePremium Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Google photo link What's this in the midst of that zoanthid colony? I've got it a couple spots. Tank has lots of coraline I'm familiar with as you can see in the picture, but this is thick, and... 3d, seems to grow in spirals up from it's base.

jolt Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Possibly plating coralline algae? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Yep.. do an google search for "plating coraline algae" and you find a bunch of pictures like yours. That is neat with the wavy pattern. I haven't seen that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexMorsePremium Posted September 8, 2017 Author Share Posted September 8, 2017 awesome. I was pretty convinced it was coraline but didn't know it could do that. Plating was the word I couldn't think of to describe this, definitely the thing. In this case it's competing/fighting with the zoa colony which is driving it more vertical to reach at the light, the other spots I've caught it are harder to get a good photo of but more like the google image search pictures I'm finding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
