When I got my live rock a couple of weeks ago it had all colors of coraline algae. Pink, deep purple, light purple, green, blue, and a very bright orange.
Well today I got home from work and I see a few light orange spots just on the surface of my live sand. Now it doesn't seem slimy it just like the sand has been dyed a faint orange on most of the sand grains, a few grains in the same area is that same bright orange color on my rock.
Could that be the coraline algae growing on my sand or is that something that shouldn't be there. My tank has just finished cycleing so I think i'm gonna do a water change tonight and vacum the sand bed and see if it comes out.
