Nice, my shrimp when I first got him was all over the tank now he just hides at the back

Do I need to feed the Toadstool anything? The lighting I have is 2x 24w T5HO tubes one Actinic one white. The tank is 125L.

It will benefit from some plankton, but it is not necessary.

Anyone got any ideas about the green leafy thing?

Mike

Macro alage, if it is what I think it is I have it in my tank. Wont do any harm but can grow quite big (easy to prune back though and good for nutrient export). Can't remember the name off the top of my head, begins with a H though (not a great help I know ).

Toadstool looks great, lighting you have should be fine for it and they like fairly good flow too. Also love the cleaner shrimp. Once I get my main tank setup again and everything moved back in I want to get a colony of these guys

looking good!!!

cleaner shrimps are ace. I have two and they are always active and very comical in the way they act

I could do without fish and just have shrimp andcorals

Could it be halimeda algae?

Mike

Yeah mate that's the one I was thinking of. It might not be that but it looks like it to me from the photo above.

It is halimeda, it's a macro algae that has a calcium skeleton so acts much like a coral, if it doesn't get enough light or nutrient it will bleach and go White.
Macro algae is a fantastic nitrite export do result
