I'm fairly new to this, but I've definitly done my homework. I have all kinds of info about green and brown algae, but can't find any on red. The reason I ask is because I bought a really nice piece of live rock with about 8 mushrooms on it, but I noticed when I got it home that it had a little spot of red slimy stuff on it. I didn't think much of it, but it's spreading rapidly. The turbo snails don't seem to want to touch it. My phosphates and nitrates are both low, and all I have is a normal florecent light (my 2 55 watt power compact should arive tomorrow), so I have no idea why it's spreading so quickly. Can anyone help? Is there anything that will eat red algae?
Thanks I appreciate it
