CORALINE ALgea

[fourlittlefish]

How can i get coraline to grow fast all over my rocks i have some on the rock and on the back glass but i want my whole tank covered? all my calicum, carbonate hardness, magnesium, and ph are perfect and im running t5 H/O.

ANY TIPS????

:yes:

Helps to seed a little coralline with either scrapings from someone else's or a piece of live rock that has good coverage, or even snails or hermit shells that have some on it.

Then, patience...

I wouldnt do that.....i was the same way and bought some purple up but honestly just keep your params in check and it will happen.....nothing good happens fast in a reef tank..
