What's the deal?

Why is my coraline algae coming in green.

Some is starting to turn purple, though.
Just asking!

Some coralline is green. The purple usually wins out though.

So, assuming all is well, just keep doing what I'm doing? If its green, its green. If it turns purple, even better?

Like said, Most of the time, it is sort of a tank age thing. The greens tend to come first. But give it time, the purples, reds and so forth will show up as long as the prams - calcium levels are OK........... Some day you will hate the daily scraping of the stuff!!! Warren
