FuEl Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 Is the frag epoxied on the rock? Or does it seem to be lying flat? Some hair algae can release chemicals that can cause growth retardation in sps.

SRC Member shiraz Posted November 30, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 30, 2003 it's definately NOT lying flat... there is a rock just behind it actually but it isn't touching it at all.. hmmm i have uncontrollable amounts of hair algae in my tank! when i remove some, it would grow back from the same spot... do i have to scrub and remove the 'root' of the algae???
