For the life of me I don't see what people see in it. They pay money for it and I cant stop it from growing on every thing. Almost like a pest!
If you want to seed for it, shut your pumps off and take one of your rocks that has coralline on it and a pair of pliers and break the stuff off in chunks and let it fall on your rock. Leave the pumps off for about 2 hrs and let the spores settle on the rock and it will take off like crazy....with proper parameters.

would that be powerheads too? I want it so bad cause, it's a lot prettier than a tank full of green, grey and brown rock LOL really that long for actinics? wow my fish will love that. they seem to like the actinics
