[LOSTOZZY]

Hi Guy's,

This may seem like a no brainer to a lot of you guy's but as I'm new to this hobby I need clarification on the Algae growing on my rocks.

Sorry about the image quality but shoud do for ID purposes.

Is this problem algae and do I need to remove it from the tank etc?

Also could you ID one of my clowns Please!!

Percula or ocellaris?

Thnaks for your Help
Cheers LOSTOZZY

I'd say that you have a Percula clown. Don't know about the algae, though.

Thanks for the ID on the clown guy's any thoughts on the algae.

Cheers LOSTOZZY

Are we talking the large green thing, or the purple stuff on the rocks?

Captive bred misbarred perc, and the algae isnt clear enough to give you a definite id.

Hi Guy's,

The algae is the purple stuff on the rocks, I will try to post a closer picture later for better ID purposes.

 

[LOSTOZZY]

Hi Guy's,

Back again with a closer pic of the purple algae, still not great quality but best we can do with the camera we have.

OH and also attached a pic of our new friends. "Amphirion melanopus" Red and Black or Cinnimon Clowns.

Hope you like and any help on the algae would be great.

Cheers LOSTOZZY

Agreed! Its hard to get rid of but suck it out as much as possible and buy your self some chemi-clean. Its only a quick fix but it works for a while. Try more water changes and also more flow helps a lot.
