Toxic Alage?? or Good Alage

[saltyrockbox]

it is really soft and slimy to the touch, I had some green hair algae in the display before and it seemed to have thicker and strong tissue. I'm not sure.

I think most algea that releases toxic chemicals is more of often the platonic type IE red tide and such.

Looks like HA to me too...it seems to grow in a few different forms.

cool ya I've been searching pictures and I agree it s just a type of hair algae and the toxic ones are planktonic mostly. so I'll let it flourish and clean it out of the overflow monthly or what ever.

cool.
