Got a pic? I had this light, neon green looking thing that never did any hard. It didn't grow or do much.
Lettuce Looking Algae
in Forum > Questions & Answers
Its really pretgy does this Lettuce looking Algae pose a threat to Reef life?
from what i can read and see in my own tank, no, but heres the issue as is the issue with ALL algae......whether or not its invasive....and can it go asexual........if its invasive and you dont have any lettuce munchers like an algae blenny, it will take over all your rock and choke the corals....., if tank parameters get a little out of hand, the algae may be able to go asexual and kill the whole tank......least thats what I have come up with from my research.....is it fast growing?
a photo would help
If its the kind im thinking of, no. Where is it at? What kind of flow is it getting?
Is this what you are asking about?
Grows locally on the docs at the coast of NC. Great in the fuge, tends to not be aggressive, and tangs seem to love it. If you want some I will be glad to send some to you once the temperature gets warmer.
Thanks,
Bill
