| Re: name that growth not sure if im spelling this right but its chedomorpha or turf algea. I have only seen it growing on tonga rocks it grows really slow but is worth quiet a bit in the lfs. My lfs is sellin it for $30 and you get a 2"x2" cut of a pice they have growing in there 30 gal nano reef its also very rare so you have a good find. How did you get this turf algea?? |

| Re: name that growth Thanks so much Kevin! I knew this was good stuff, just didn't know it was rare. Actually, it must have come in on the rock or with something else. I never bought it, never even saw it for sale in lfs. Just started growing one day. I got that rock a year ago. Saw this growing on it about 4 months ago. Have a tiny patch starting on the other side of the same rock!

| Re: name that growth looks like Maidens hair to me. If you have a refugium put that rock in it and let the tiny crustaceans multiply and feed your tank.
