So over the past few months I have been getting overun with GREEN coraline (and also lots of purple) its not hairy or slimey and very hard to scrape off the glass.

I read that most all coraline is good, but couldn't find any specific information on green coraline. Anybody ahve any good links?

Thanks.

its a very good thing, what filters do you have running on your system. any pics? what do you supplement with?

Filters? None really .. just about 200lbs of live rock. I just have lots of flow (mag 18 in a 72 gallon) and I skim the heck out of the water. I was running a phos reactor for a while because I was feeding cheap flake food and I was using tap water for a long time. Now im using RO-DI and I would almost say there is 3 times more green algea than purple coraline algae

I feed lots of spirulina, then switch it up randomly with mysis soaked in zoe and garlic. When I started with the spirulina I noticed the green algea begun.

I just upgraded my lighting (from ~130 watts pc to 630 watts pc + mh) and I think my coraline is going to bleach a little.

Your coraline will adjust...and start eating up that MH for lunch!
