What are these 2 algea?

[Wael El-Dasher]

My tanks is slowly maturing. The latest algae is this very long stringy hair algae ( I believe that's what it is) and now something that looks like a plant. Can anyone tell me what they are. The white spots in the first photo are actually air bubbles. The second photo shows something like a plant.

the second one looks like halimeda,a macro algae a good one.

Whatever it is it is decomposing. As algae dies and decomposes it releases gas.

Thanks, I assume ur referring to the first pic with the hair algae. I'm running a phosphate reactor and it seems to be working well. My algae is decreasing at a good rate. It's only been a month in use or so.

That's good news! I have a LR with a large plant, similar to it, so that's a good sign that it's seeding around the tank.
