anyone know what this stuff might be?

I have to look the name up, it's a platting algea. I do not think it;s a pest algea, and in my tank, someone always eats it before I can get a big patch going.

Your tank and fish look great!

Thanks Bax, yeah it only on two rocks and it seems to falling off alot lately just been wondering what it was. I add alot of vita-chem selcon and garlic extreme to my fish feedings to help keep them healthy.

Well some updates: A little over a week ago i lost one of my female anthias. It wasent really eating and seem to be the weak link of the bunch but still looked in good shape until one day it looked really bad and died that night. The rest of fish are doing very well and growing large. I didn't really notice until i recently introduce some new fish in the range of 2-3.5 inches.

I've added a purple and yellow tang. A powder blue tang and a green mandarin. The purple i got from a lfs and the rest my first time trying reefhotspot.com. The powder blue looks in bad shape but it is eating so hopefully with a strong diet of greens and foods soaked in selcon and garlic extreme i can help it. I was suppose to receive and achilles tang as well but it wasen't ready so soon i expect one.

Pictures will be here later this weekend or early next week once the fish settle in.

Very nice tank. I hope that some day I can have a tank that nice. Awesome job!

Thanks for the kind comments. Its ok still a long work in progress. A little overtime at work and save here and there and a tank this size is in reach of anyone if i could do it.
