Hello,

I have ordered a couple of seeing plates as currently I only have a few small pieces of rock with Coralline algae on it, and I want it to quickly spread. I have also ordered a bottle of Coralline purple cx as a mineral boost.

Can anyone please give me tips on how to propagate quickly in a safe method that wont harm inverts/fish?

I also have a UV cartridge filte in my tank, will this prevent the algae spores from proliferating?

Scott

Scrape the Coraline off of seed rock and spread throughout your tank and then paintence as long as your parmarmeters are in line you will grow coraline (regardless if you buy a seed rock)
It comes in on everything from frags to your cuc
