"Coralline Algae is a type of red Algae in the order Corallinales. It is a desirable algae to have in a saltwater aquarium and its growth is an indication of a properly matured marine fish tank. It is commonly introduced into an aquarium by placing live rock into the aquarium. Coralline Algae enters the system as one of the many beneficial “hitchhiker’s” on live rock as well as on the shells of snails." - ARC Reef
Let's talk about it today!
1. How important is having coralline algae present in your aquarium to you?
2. Would you measure the maturity of a reef tank by the amount of coralline present in the tank?
3. How long did it take you to start seeing coralline in your first reef tank?
