Green coralline?

I thought I read this somewhere here. I have cut back on my lighting, and it's really taking care of the cyano and green hair, pretty much gone aside from the back glass. However, I'm left with this green flourescent covering on my rock, its hard and looks like coralline, aside from the fact that its bright green. No dust, hair or slime, just hard green algae. You can see it in one of the pics in my build thread, but I'll post some when I find the camera

Re: Green coralline?

Coralline can come in green too. Usually it will eventually change to pink or purple though. I bet that's what it is.

Re: Green coralline?

There is green coralline,that to me is not.Its perfectly normal,the pink and purple coralline will eventually take its place.
