Hints of green...
if I look closely, I can see that there's hints of green on my rocks here and there. I take it, it could be the next algae coming in?

Re: Hints of green...
I take it, it's good algae? Does it have to be controlled or just let it run it's course? Thanks for the link Ryan. I spent a good hour last night reading some of the info off and on.

Re: Hints of green...
im dealing with something of the same sort, however i tried to scrub it with a while back with a toothbrush and nothing came off, after reading the article section i found that this was pointless, however, nothing has grown any more. its almost like thats the color of the rock. is that even possible?

Re: Hints of green...
i bet it is just because the alage is imbedded in the pores of the rock thats my thought

Re: Hints of green...
well with that being said, the rock had that green tint to it when i bought it, so maybe the place that supplied that rock had an algae problem. i dont know, but there isnt a problem with green algae in my tank to say the least.
