    I just so happen to be looking at my tank when I saw this. The first signs of Coralline algae :)

    It's starting to take off in my tank. I always smile when I see growing. Love coraline.

    My tank has been running for about 6-7 months. Only place I can get Coraline to grow is a little on my glass. None on the rocks.

    Congratulations, Z. You'll be cursing it in no time. :D

    Keep scraping it off the glass. That will help seed the rocks.
