coralline growth, am I outta the woods yet for water quality (1 Viewer)

[Guest]

after my crash, I have been patient and now seeing corraline growth on glass.......what the best way to increase or stablize that? the obvious would be to continue what I am dosing and see what happens.......

any thoughts?

Do you have a pic of your coraline? I think I have it as well on my back wall, but don't know why it has not spread to the sides nor the front... Might not even be coraline...

no pics, just looking at others pics on reefcentral and know that its coraline. I have it growing on back, side and powerheads and rocks..........

some of it also looks green......

a way to stimulate it is to scratch it and let it float in your tank while maintaining good alk and calcium levels.

h2o flow

water flow will help coralline grow and spread. And lots of water flow will only help an ailing system.....

Your out of the woods when you water starts testing well.

Also upping your calcium dosages will increase the growth. I can always tell when I drip a good amount of calcium. My coralline growth explodes everywhere.
