Pink algae

[tektite]

The growth structure, the flat or even hollow ends, its a type of Galaxaura. Must just be a very fine branched member of the genus.

Thank you tektite, I will continue my research in this direction

Dlteck2000,

PM me if you're anywhere near Paris. Wifey and I will be doing Paris and Malta later this year. After that, the next overseas vacation looks like London, the "Chunnel", Normandy and then Paris.

Yes, I was an hour from Paris, but I do not speak English too ...

Also consider possibility: Amphiroa

( Maybe Amphiroa fragilissima? )

Changed my mind: Amphiroa franciscana is closer

What 2nd page? Page 2 of your post OR Page 2 of one of the linked pages?

 

[Dlteck2000]

Ok, problem solved.
Yesterday I can't access the second page of this topic.

Thank you Raybee indeed it looks very much like the Amphiroa franciscana.

Yet it is still present in my aquarium.

Oh no

Oh no

Looks like I have the same stuff growing in my tank. Did anyone figure out how to control it?

 

[Dlteck2000]

Hello , I have not yet found a solution and all my aquarium is invaded.
It grows between the branches of Acropora and develop it by making necrotic ...

 

[FinzAquatics]

You could always just yank it out and send it to me

I would be glad to introduce it into my tank

Did you try urchins or sea hairs?

 

[Dlteck2000]

hello,

I only tried Mespilia globulus do not touch.
I recently introduced Aplysia californica apparently he does not eat

@Massachusetts : it's going to cost dear France -> Massachusetts

 

[Dlteck2000]

Sorry sea hairs = Aplysia I don't know

 

[Phycophila]

These could be Amphiroa or a Jania species...I'd have to look more closely at the dichotomies (where the branches split) to tell for certain. Either way, both genera have a lot of calcification and are not eaten by anything to my knowledge!
