How to grow Coralline Alge?

[fishytim]

I have been dosing my tank with Calcium and iodine. Anything else I can do?
Thanks..

I hear that you can use a hard bristle brush and brush the areas of the coralline and that will release spores and attach to other rocks. If you already have some of course....

To grow coralline algae in a tank that does not already have any coralline in it, go out and buy Calcium, Strontium/Molybdenum, and Coral Vital. It's my opinion that Kent makes the best Calcium and Strontium/Molybdenum, but for your Coral Vital, get Marc Weiss' product. It is much better than the Kent product. Although it is $10 more, it is worth it.
Dose the Coral Vital every day for the first month, while dosing the Calcium and Strontium/Molybdenum every week.
Within a month or two you should see coralline starting to grow very well.
