whats plaguing my flame moss

[DarrylR]

I asked for help last time for what was in my flame moss and thought it was a new moss to algae. But I noticed viewing my old threads I had a better picture of whatever is in my flame moss. Best to save the picture and magnify to the spot if it helps.

This was my drawing of it :S

I don't see what the problem is, Darryl. What's wrong?

Told you to save and magnify!

The problem is circled.

that's cladophora algae. once you have it, it's tough to shake. thrives in the same conditions that is good for plants, so dosing nutrients won't do much. Just keep the area well circulated with water and CO2.

I've battled it for a long time and it hasn't spread anymore. I've pretty much given up targeting it except whenever MG gets more amanos.

Seems to look like it when I googled it, but just not as lush but spread out.

The link would not allow me to post the picture hosted on it but the link is pretty good with algae ID'ing. I added spaces so if you want to use the link reconnect the words... seems the filter system is filtering out the sites name making it all ****.

If I were you, I would manually remove as much as I could
