is that sargassum?

[Seahorsedreams]

That's grape.... caulerpa.

Sargassum is brownish/golden "leaves" with little bubbles groups here and there.

[Cyclura]

really? wow so one day my caulerpa will grow up to be big and strong like your caulerpa?

do you have any whole tank shots?

and how do you keep algae at bay with such low flow? I have a bad problem.

[Seahorsedreams]

I actually don't have any saved full tank shots. I was hoping to have the caulpera take hold before then.

As far as having no algae?..... the tank is new.

But also keep the nutrient export going. Take care of your lights. Have a good and varied clean up crew. Have your flow as high as your horses will tolerate. Keep your alkalinity at the high end of normal.
