I have noticed recently that on my fiji live rock, a white coating is beginning to grow. I have patches of purple coraline algae, but now it seems, at least to me that the hard white coating is beginning to spread. This coating was present in a smaller amount when I pruchased the LR from the FS as I recall. I have searched the web, to see if I could figure out wehat this may be, but I have had no luck. The tank has been running for 6 weeks and the water levels are listed below. Does anyone know what the hard white caoting is? Is it something I should be worried about? Currently there are 12 snails in the tank and 3 fish. Thanks for any advice you may have.
