Millipora FT

[waterfaller1]

I have a light brown{it's normal color} millipora with bright
yellow tips. It has at least 30-40 branches and is several inches tall and wide. It is encrusted on a rock about 4X4". Will trade for some mexican turbo snails.

What do you need them for? I'm guessing the red slime algae? If so, I have a product that has worked wonders...I forget the name, but you have to turn off your skimmer for 2 days, but clears the red slime right up. I'll get the name when I go home today.

No red slime{and I would NEVER..repeat..NEVER put a chemical in my tank to kill cyano if I did have it.} It kills good bacteria too..equivelant to putting erythromycin in the tank. No..this is a nightmare fluffy red algae I have been battling for quite some time. It came in on a coral..and I've had it ever since. Some call it cotton candy...I believe the proper name is asparagopsis taxiformis.

You try any urchins or sea hares?? Ive herd they do wonders for prob algae.

I used to have a tuxedo urchin..they mostly eay coraline. A sea hare might do it. I had a huge one that cleaned up the tank of all the visible algae. I passed him to another hobbyist who mishandled him and lost him. They are risky though, as they have an ink they can release when stressed. This one did it in the bag as I was passing him to the other person. It was the first time I saw him do it. I had to do an emergency swap of the water in the bag to keep him from killing himself.:eek2: I have never seen one quite like him...he was at least 8" X3".
