Aloha,

Does it look like this?



Typically, this is a rare, slow growing algae, prized by algae lovers like myself. If it is mostly on one rock, I will be happy to buy it.
Are there any herbivorous fish in the tank? Any Emerald Crabs?

Mahalo,
Mark Hug

I have some of this in my nano. I put a small rock into my 150g with 6 or 7 of these bubble algae on it,and my tangs had it gone within hours. They loved it!
