Weetabix7 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Here are some pics of all of the various Macroalgaes in this tank. Still working on IDs for some of them, but have posted IDs for the ones I know. Halymenia Halimeda Cryptonemia Crenulata A type of Chaetomorpha, forms low, dense mats growing over rock, makes an excellent mini habitat for Microfauna. Here's a really old pic I have of it growing on a Zoa Rock: byrothamnion triquetrum Green Macro- Ulva Blue Macro- Blue Ochtodes Pink Macro- No ID yet Another pic of Blue Ochtodes Flamingo Feather Algae No ID yet Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Here are the Macros I got from organism, no ID on them yet. This one is difficult to get a pic of in my tank, had to do a top down shot. It looks like this under high light halides (organism's pic): The speckles on this one are usually redder in my tank, mildly faded atm. Fast grower. Looks like this under high light halides (organism's pic): Botrycladia I also have some Codium but couldn't get a good current pic of it since it's hiding behind the rocks. Here's an old pic from another tank: Link to comment
spanko Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Nice closeups. Did I miss the FTS? Link to comment
got2envy Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Ohhh! nice collection Weets I see some derr dat I wantz...wanna trade some schtuffs? Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Nice closeups. Did I miss the FTS? Nope, not posting one yet. I've got the basic Aquascape where I want it, but I still need rearrange a lot of the corals. Atm, they're all on the sandbed in the back so I could move all the Macros to the front of the tank for the "nice closeups". It may take me another day to get everything arranged to my liking; my fingers are irritated from constantly being immersed in SW for the last 2 days. Ohhh! nice collection Weets I see some derr dat I wantz...wanna trade some schtuffs? The stuff that you don't have isn't big enough for me take pieces off of yet, unfortunately. Some are just little snippets, gotta let em grow out. We can trade down when they grow up. Link to comment

pyronus Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Nice Macro, so pritty. The first blue one looks like it plates, or kinda like layered flower petals. Does it look like that from the side? Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Nice Macro, so pritty. The first blue one looks like it plates, or kinda like layered flower petals. Does it look like that from the side? Yeah, it's kinda like that. It has growth forms like a Monti Cap, except it's a Macro, not a coral. Link to comment

Kittysnax Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 It was a looooong road getting it to this point, believe me. ROFL Trust me I do! Now...all I have to do is find somewhere to get Macro Algae BESIDES Fern and Grape Caulpulblahblah...I have no idea how to spell that >.< I had some BEAUTIFUL Red Graci(?) but It kinda turned white, then got covered in algae. I am noticing little bristles of what seems to be Red Grac growing on my Koriala though. Do you have any problems with them going sexual? Your Algae that is ROFL! Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 Lol, are you asking if I have Sexy Algae? I think it's mostly Caulerpa and Halimeda you have to worry about that with. I haven't any Macros go sexual on me yet. I have a small amount of Blue Ochtodes and some of Organisms Ruffly Lettuce Macro I could send you, see pics on previous page. Link to comment
varanus37 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 The tank looks great! I really dig the view from the end. Your macro catalog actually helped me ID one in the 75. Pretty sure I've got two or three small spots of codium going off of your pics. Things look like they're really coming together, keep up the good work. Bill Link to comment
