Eileen Plankton Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Ohio Posts: 18 Karma: 52	What is this? I've attached a picture and was wondering if anyone knew what this is? The LFS suggested I turn the lights off for a week to help with the green hair algae. I added a phosphate remover as well, but wasn't sure if lights off would hurt this thing? Thanks Attached Thumbnails

I agree, does look like a candy cane type of coral.

6hrs a day should help as geekdafied mentioned
