|  Coraline at 2Months?
My rock seems to be getting some spots of purple/pink growth on them. I think it coraline. Is it possible that coraline is growing at 2 months? I started all base rocks and seeded with coraline. _________ 90 gallon tank with center overflows, 44 gallon custom sump/fuge, Tek T5 retrofit 4x54 bulbs, Reef Octopus nw200 protein skimmer, Iwaki WMD40RLXT return pump (changed to panworld 100pxx),Knop c ca reactor, PA light house controller.

Congrats! I noticed my coralline on the walls and Loc-Line I had in the tank before the rock. Just keep the parameters rock steady and it will keep growing. That is a good sign that the tank is ready to start adding inhabitants. If they are big fish only add 1 every 2 weeks to allow the bacteria to develope. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)
