Coralline Algae

Many new tank owners ask us about coralline algae, so we added an article to the website about it, you can find it here:

How do you Grow Coralline?

Thank you for the excellent info on coralline algae! I have never had a problem growing and maintaining this type of beautiful algae, though my black diadema urchin likes to think otherwise by consuming it.

The encrusting form is the only type I have been able to grow, however! I love the plating and branching forms and wish I could grow some of these awesome forms as well as the encrusting I have no problems with!

THanks! The plating forms are a little harder to come by, no one wants to let them go.
