Red Grape algia
I have a new out break of algia. I think it is red grape algia. I have it on some new rocks that I recived from a tank that a person was breaking down. I wanted to know If to keep or get rid of.
Thanks for your input!!

Re: Red Grape algia
Yeah, looks like bubble algae.
I found three pieces of bubble algae in my tank last night  I'll have to head over to the LFS for some emerald crabs this week too.
