Joevember Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Anyone got an idea of what this could be? I haven't added anything to my tank for a very long time, so I'm quute curious about this. It's really squishy and moves freely in the curreny, but it definitely looks like a macro. Kinda plates like a monti too. Quote Link to comment
mcarroll Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Could be a green algae that has bleached for some reason....some have an underlying florescent red. Red algae that are normally red are usually a deeper red, not really florescent like that appears to be in the pic. All that said, I can't tell what that is. 😉 1 Quote Link to comment
Joevember Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 Well it has certainly grown in the past month. It's well on its way to becoming the biggest thing in the tank. It blows around in the flow very easily and it's kind of pretty to watch it. Think I'll keep it and cut it back when it starts touching stuff, placement of it is perfect where it attached to the rock. The best match I've been able to find that looks close is halymenia floridiana. Quote Link to comment
Tired Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 It kinda looks like a red ulva. Interesting thing. Does anything seem to eat it? 1 Quote Link to comment
