Howdy all,
My tank is being slowly taken over by a red bubble-like algae that looks something like sea grapes (Botryocladia) but this looks a little different than the pics I see on the net. Can anyone identify this? Any ideas how to control it. If I take rocks out and scrub they are quickly covered with a lubricant-like slime which takes some doing to get off once the bubbles have burst.
The pictures are huge, I won't put them up here. TIA.
Algae 1
Algae 2
