Identify alge...
 

Does anyone know of a website that helps (with pictures) :cool: identify different types of alge? I have a new one growing and I want to know what it is and what I need to do... :smile:

Thanks, Walter

WetWebMedia and Reefs.org both have a fairly wide selection of photos of algaes.

Thanks for the links. I can't find they type I've got. It is in small redish,small and fuzzy. Any ideas?

Does it look like a red form of Chaetomorpha sp.? I had something that did, never identified it but my tang likes it. It's still growing a bit here and there but it doesn't last long.

I don't know if you ever had a planted FW tank. But in FW you get one called Red algae: Also called Black Beard Algae (bba), or Black Brush Algae. That's what is looks like... red/black in color.
