Green Plants

[califishdude]

I'm starting to develope some small green plants around my rocks. The coralian algea is starting to develope quite nicely. As for this plants they look l ike a minuture bush. I tried to pull them out but their attached very well. My levels are all in the normal limits, my CA. is about 480 though. My actinic are on 8 hours and MH on for 5.

they should be okay, google shaving brush algae and let us know if that is them, they are a beneficial macroalgae... But it could also be hair algae so be aware.
