Red Algae

zfunk007 · 05/28/2005, 07:03 PM

I've got this BRIGHT RED algae growing out of one of my rocks. It grew off a Hatian piece of live rock. Its a leafy like algae and its absolutely beautiful. So im letting it grow and assuming it won't do anymore harm than normal algae. Anyone have any ideas as to what it might be? I'll try and post a pic soon. Thanks.

I guess you could call it sort of "feathery." I'll have a pic up tonight.
