    I have no idea. I moved some cheato from my fuge to a net breeder in the tank to allow more flow and now a week later I see this guy on the inside of the netting... Maybe a macro algae?

    This pic is from the top of my tank looking into the breeder.

    Any ideas?

    They can take over and ruin reefs pretty quickly. Best to take care of it! Having said that, I have 4 in my tank. I've only killed one so far. The others ones are in bad locations...grrrr....

    Can someone give me a quick directions for use for Joes Juice? I searched their website but no dice. My buddy gave me a bottle but is not picking up his phone lol. Sorry for the noob question... I assume i just 'feed' it, but i didnt know if there was anything special or any special amount.

    BTW- It's been 2 days since I saw it (i know i know, but its the weekend so its ok to be lazy) and its grown double... amazing little thing.
