johnmaloney Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I need semi - decent close up type identification pics of the following: Invasive grape caulerpa - low creeping varieties of racemosa. Red bubble algae (not the nice types of botryocladia - pyriformis or skottsbergeii would be good) blue green cyano film algae red turf algae cotton candy algae all but the commons and bubble and byropsis.... Will pay $10 electronic cash money per pic. Using it to setup an identification thread on the forums to help people id nuisance algae. If you want $20 off your next purchase per pic I can do that too. So now you can pay to clean algae simply by taking a picture of it. Help us out! Link to comment
jeremai Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Hey John, send me some nice macros, I'll totally take photos of them for you. Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 We always have a deal that if you take our algae and get a pic that is better than the one we have you get it for free. Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 I should post this for free in the identification forum. Link to comment
Mr. Fosi Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I have pics of cotton candy & blue green cyano. How do you want them John? What kind of light? Link to comment
burnofvengeance Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 So how are you sent electronic cash? How do we send the photo to you? Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 paypal for electronic cash money - I got cotton candy now, I do need blue green Mr. Fosi, thanks! Link to comment
Nick's Reef Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 john I can get you pics of both green and red bubble algae. I got a cold and at home bored so I have nothing better to do. Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 thanks fosi! I like the blue green in that pic, any chance I can get a pic of the Dictyosphaeria cavernosa too? Nick- hopefully you can shoot me the pic of red bubble in better health than you were in when you posted. Thanks guys! Link to comment
Mr. Fosi Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Sure thing. I'll take a couple pics tonight and shoot them over. Shall I try for the lighting I used in the cyano pic or would regular 14K work? Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 the white lighting picture. If you can crop it from the other picture that is cool. I actually like the cavernosa, but in small amounts. Link to comment
Mr. Fosi Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I think I figured out how to make them look better. You've got another PM. Link to comment
Lalani Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I've got plenty of invasive red bubble algae if you still need pics of it.... Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 thanks! but I got one now. I need to get around to updating everything, I have been spending too much time on boat trouble this week. If you aren't familiar, a boat is a hole in the ocean you throw your money and time into.

Mr. Fosi Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 You know, I've heard that about boats... Only the way I learned it was: "A boat is a hole in the lake you throw money and time into." Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 10 miles west of me that is the saying. That is actually what the boat will be doing a lot of. Alligator watching on the canals of the Okeechobee, and in the wetlands. Some intracoastal and lagoon touring as well. When relatives from NY come down I like to show them the gators and manatee especially. It is the ugliest "john" boat you have ever seen, but it is fast and can ride shallow when you don't have to bail out water or paddle. Have you ever seen the movie the African Queen? I have the stripped down version. Link to comment
burnofvengeance Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Do you still need red turf algae? I'm pretty sure that's what I had. Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 velvety turf algae like ceramiuim would be good. Link to comment
burnofvengeance Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Well let me know, I'll send you what I got and then you can make the decision of whether or not you need/want it. Link to comment
