    I've been searching the interwebs looking for an ID on this red macro algae that has sprung up on my rocks. It's in the bottom right corner of the rock. It's pretty cool and I was hoping someone know what it was. It's very short (about 1 cm tall) and feathery. It's most unique feature is...

    Hi, I saw some red LED light online. I was curious how they look and how corals react to them, but have been unable to really find any videos or pictures. Does anybody have any?
