    Looking good. I have heard that a good test to tell if you have cyano algae is to feel it. If it feels slimy, then it is most cyano. My cyano is usually a purple color.

    I'm sure somebody else with more experience will be able to help you identify it.

    A few shots from today and... SCORE! I found a random small shroom on the rock so i frgged it, itll go into the 10g once attached. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1331348863.716773.jpg the polyps seem to not mind the move downstairs. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1331348895.233302.jpg the polyp island so far. I plan to do a small mushroom garden right in from of it. Would mushrooms do ok on the substrate?
