The coraline has finally started popping up in my tank! I’m excited, BUT, unfortunately, it only appears to be growing in my chaeto reactor . I used two bottles of bottled coraline about a month ago, I figured it was overkill but I wanted the purple and pink strains, and to speed up the process. I also scraped very little coraline off a piece of live rock into the tank shortly after the cycle. I’m running two Hydra 26 HDs on a modified Daxby schedule (shown below). My chaeto reactor is wrapped in a blue red LED strip and runs all night.
Might it be that my reds are too low on the Hydras stunting the growth of the coraline algae in the display tank a bit? I would think I would at least see some splatter on the live rock given how much is growing in the reactor. Curious to see if anyone has experimented with this! ;Bookworm
