September 13, 200521 yr comment_65140 was checking out my sump the other day and found something strange growing on the rocks in there, heres some pics... any ideas? also a pic of the tank at the moment... ta, bonnie Report
September 13, 200521 yr comment_65160 looks like red valonia if thats possible, is the powderblue tang real?? looks fake Report
September 13, 200521 yr comment_65161 Hard to tell for sure since you've got the camera focused about a foot past the rock. But it looks like red macroalgae. Nice stuff, I've got heaps. I've pulled out about a basketball sized clump from my tank rcently because it was taking up so much room. But it grows in a nice easy to remove clump. Report
September 13, 200521 yr Author comment_65164 thanks brianemone, yeah he's real. most of the photos ive taken of him look like this... he's so fast!!! i'll do a search on 'red valonia'. sorry 'bout the shot ira. was trying to get a close up since the bubbly things are so small. can red algae just turn up out of the blue? bonnie Report
September 13, 200521 yr comment_65173 That's one healthy looking powder blue. Feed him up on nori, they love it. Layton Report
September 13, 200521 yr Author comment_65174 yeah, love my powder blue. over the last couple of weeks hes decided that hes boss of the tank and so now the yellow tang is sulking . i feed them heaps of different foods including nori 3 times daily and 2 different types of jbl dry foods that are spiralina based. the clowns think its wonderful being fed all the time!
