I noticed yesterday it looks like corallin algae is eating into the seals on the edges of my glass aquarium? Has anyone seen this happen before? There's a picture here:

ive seen it happen, you probabally accidentally scraped the silicon with a razor or something making it not seal to the glass...

haha... i think that if you let it keep growing you should be fine... corraline algae is what ends up holding tanks together anyway... :D
