I found this growing in my tank. When I first saw it on the live rock, I figured it was a dead something. However, over the months it has started to grow. On other sites I have seen some odd coraline algae formations that are not encrusting. Is that what this is as I have never seen a picture of this stuff before?

Very cool. Let it grow and frag it out!

I have some awesome plating coraline in my tank. I've never seen a branching variety. It looks really cool whatever it is. I really dig the little things that show up on their own. That definitely adds some individuality to your tank! ------------- Educate. Inspire. Conserve. http://snakebuddies@wordpress.com |

It may be coraline that has encrusted a macro algae. I have seen this in my tank in my tank. ------------- WMAS is da place! Save the Banggai's! Tooele,Ut. |
