That is the true color, I just wish it would do something! lol. Like grow a stem away from the rock or separate and multiply! It's just kinda boring by itself...

He was partially correct! It's the Canon XS Rebel, not XSi. Thanks for the compliments though!

So I think my brown algae (diatoms) growth has relaxed some, but I'm noticing quite a bit of green algae growth. It is really taking over my base rock and shows up on the walls of my tank.
I've tried scrubbing it off the rock with a toothbrush but it doesn't come off. The glass cleans easily though. I think I need to stock up some more on my Blue Legged Hermits to cleanup my rock...
It doesn't bother me that much though since it helps the rocks look more "alive" rather than the plain tan, boring color. Should I be concerned with this or no?
Here are some pics:

Is it a lime green on the rock's? It might also be coraline algae seeding, since you said it doesnt really brush off. I notice that when my coraline grows I get a lime green algae on my rocks then it turns purple in acouple of weeks.

Yeah, it's pretty bright, like a lime green. Man I hope it's Coralline, but with my luck probably not!!
