Is this coralline algae

Are you talking about the light blue stuff on the rock? If so yes.

 

[J2thefree]

Thanks there's also that yellow orange colored stuff in the middle I didn't know if that was too or if that was something else I should worry about

 

[melosu58]

Looks like coralline to me. Good job.

 

[J2thefree]

Thanks soo that's nothing to worry about and a good thing? does it spread fast and does that mean I'm doing something right for once? Lol

Usually to have good coralline you need good Calcium, magnesium and alk numbers. They must be doing good even though you need tests to be sure.

Thanks I really appreciate the response I'm getting excited I can't wait to start putting livestock in.. I'm just hoping I have a nice successful reef tank

 

[melosu58]

I hope you do too. Good Luck.

 

[J2thefree]

Can you scrape it off with your finger easily? If it takes a bit to get off or it doesnt come off then yeah, it's prob coralline.
