Last time it was cyano... A few days ago I noticed a little bit of pink on my rock (dead coral) and today, it's more visible and bigger, from the human eye it's more pink but on the camera it's hard to see

I look everyday, it's kind of transparent and yes the rock on the right is covered in coralline, I love corallineYou must stare at your tank a lot. It could be coralline or it could be discolouration. Isn’t the rock in bottom right infront of it covered in coralline? I know it’s necessary but I hate coralline like it’s my part time job.
I've never been so impatient in my life with just some random pink dots, I put a booster, it works on rocks, but it will take more time on the plastic and else I think. I mean 2 months... You're rightWhat's your question? Coraline? To early to tell IMO.
It's Soo beautiful especially on pumps, so basically my pump or other plastic will look like that after 5-12 months?Coralline appears on plastic parts long before rocks typically. Generally after at least 5 months in new tanks.
If you do your part and maintain your tank properly the coralline will come for sure. Typically on plastic parts first then your rocks or glass. Get some snails with coralline on their shells and scrape off into your water column. Usually around 5 months is when you first really notice it in your tank. GHA usually dies off as coralline takes over.It's Soo beautiful especially on pumps, so basically my pump or other plastic will look like that after 5-12 months?
When I put new rocks, half of the coralline dies, on my snails she'll it all died, now it's dark red dots (not cyano I checked) but on rocks it regrowed, is this normal?If you do your part and maintain your tank properly the coralline will come for sure.

It's definitely a hobby of mine!!!You must stare at your tank a lot.
A variety of factors can cause that. If coralline is exposed to dry air it will turn pink and die. Also depends on the age of your tank and how stable your parameters are. It's not something to dwell on or worry about. If you do your part it will develop naturally in your tank.When I put new rocks, half of the coralline dies, on my snails she'll it all died, now it's dark red dots (not cyano I checked) but on rocks it regrowed, is this normal?
