    What type of algae is this?

    If it feels slimy, then its possibly red slime algae. It is a coat of bacteria. Some of the reasons that it can be caused by is very low water movement and I think high phosphates. If it is red slime algae best way to control and get rid of it is by doing pwc (RO/DI water) and get the water moving.

    Enticing new Lion and Snowflake to eat

    I had a snow flake eal and he loved krill, I used to put it on a kabob stick and he would take the krill right off of that (great show too!). As for lion, you can feed him either live feeder gold fish or frozen silver sides.
