How to increase coraline algae growth?


Recommended Posts

kawa is a good source for CA so there you coraline algae will glow... do not over dose as it'll cause spike in CA

nvr the less you also need min requirer light source.... T5 will do the trick already

and you need to seed it with some coraline as well if you don't...

Do maintain as low PO4 as possible to have a good growth

1. seeding of coralline algae

2. no3 & po4 as low as possible, best undetectable

3. dose iwarna topup, 0.1% alternate days, eg for 3x2x2 feet tank, dose 300ml of iwarna topup

it works for my 3 footer, will follow the same regime for my 4 footer

I do DIY style kalkwasser. I use a 1 gallon container , puncture a

pin size hole at the bottom side of the container, put 3 grams of

kalkwasser in bott, fill three quarters with water, shake vigorously,

then let it drip into tank. U can use a toothpick to stick into the pin size

to slow down flow.

U would find the water abit slimy. I did it 3 times a week for 2 mths

n I had a tank full of purple rocks :)) hope that's helpful to u

Cheers

Wah... nice aiptasia...

Anyways for good coraline growth, medium blue light and maintain at least 400ppm calcium.

Looks like Tube anemone to me... :) Cheers...

yeap i think its a tube anemone too, and a nice one! :D

i'm going to try dnsfpl's recipe for coraline :lol: see if it helps to boost growth.

imo as long as phosphates are low and calcium is maintained together with good lights, coraline should grow :)
