I noticed I have it in my other tank coincidentally so I just took out a bare plug with some and put it in my big tank. So its all working out lolWhat works the best? Patience. I finally saw mine today. Not just one spot but all over every piece of plastic. They are tiny but that is how it starts.
A few months? A few weeks? I ordered mine off of Amazon thru ARC. Ordered mine Sunday, said it would be here in 2 weeks. Got it today and already dosed it. I got both, purple and pink strainsOne of the few times you can purchase time.
Wait a few months or spend $21 and wait a few weeks

I second those who suggested the ARC helix bottles from AlgaeBarn. I got one, poured it in, kept my PH up, and am seeing spots popping up all over after 3 weeks or so.Please share all your tips and secrets to getting coralline algae. Ive not tried anything yet.
Same experience here.I wouldn't buy the bottles. There really is no need for it. You will get coraline algae whether you want it or not. I used those bottles and all I got was hard green algae which is also common for other people. It is not green coraline. Two months later and coraline is finally starting to grow. The coraline on frag plugs and snails has always been there. I feel like I wasted money and time with those bottles. Just my humble opinion.
Ya I've got some coralline from plugs so I think I will just let it do its thing. My bf is impatient and wants it now but its not been a big deal for me. Thanks for advice!Same experience here.
