red coraline algae

[kirse28]

just curious if there can be to much red coraline algae. cause ive been scrapping it off everyside of my tank. the heater and power heads are already cosumed. ive only heard the red coraline algae is great to have and everyone wants it?? should i just be happy that its the red and not something else or is there a bigger problem arising

Pictures? How fast is this growing? It could be red cyano bacteria. Is it easily removable?

Attachment 240881ill include pics. but no its like a 2 hour process to scrap one side. Its growing fast enough but not crazy fast. it looks a pink bullseye, its weird. sorry the tank looks so bad

i am betting its Coraline, something most of us deal with constantly

my corraline was so bad at one point, you couldnt even see through the front glass. I scraped it off with a razor blade(took almost 2 hours) and it hasnt grown as rapidly since. I did leave it on the back wall just because i think it looks cool

yeah the same problem. scraped it and left the back. Adds character. haha just want to make sure everythings good. I fig it was corraline after everything i saw.
