Coralline algae?

[Irishtimm]

Sorry for the bad picture. I was half way through a good tank scrubbing and noticed 3 blotches of pink on the back glass of my tank. I ran the brush over them and they’re still there. Is this Coralline starting to form?

Yep!

 

[Gtinnel]

Absolutely

Definitely coralline. It doesn’t come off of glass easily, you usually need a razor blade and lots of patience.

I’ll probably just leave it for now. It can keep the hundreds of spirorbid worms on my back glass company. Lol
