What type of lighting do you use? I get that bright green coraline right before it goes to the purple. I've thought to ask about it but it does not seem to be algea. I have about 10 different types of LR and each has different colorations even after being in the same tank with others. the only tank that has uniform coraline was a tank that was seeded with a couple pounds of pulverized LR.

I have the same green growing in my tank, about a month and half ago I had a problem when I added homemade LR to soon wiped out almost all of my pink/purple coraline. Now I have green growing everywhere definitely coraline hopefully it will turn pink/purple. My current lighting is 2 URI NO super actinic, 1 URI VHOwhite actinic, and 1 URI VHO super actinic
