Does Corraline Start Out Green?

[billaweed]

I have a ton of flow in my 50 gallon. I used to have red slime algae but since I increased my flow its all dying off. So bassically I'm curious if the green could be some sort of corraline algae growth. My lights are still good, and I just replaced 2 of 4 of my 54 watt t-5's. anybody know what it may be?

thanks

I have green but it grows in the low light low flow areas.

Coralline comes in a lot of different colors. I have some green coralline in my refugium (growing in all the same spots as the purple stuff). I've seen organge coralline too.

well this stuff is like a perfect peppermint green. There is no thickness to it yet. basically it looks like those area's of my rock are turning color. My camera's dead or I'd take some pictures. its just a lot different than any other "algae" ive seen.

I cant find a picture of it on google either

I had coraline start out green before when I first setup my 90gal and eventually it turned purple

Does Strontium help corraline growth?

I have that same green on some of my rock.

I have questioned what it was. Not sure if it is coraline.
