This algae can survive without light!
Background: I use water from the ocean which is near a river with very clean fresh water which only has SG of 1.018 so I store it in a plastic bin for a week to evaporate to 1.024 before using it for the tank. I keep liverock in it to remove any ammonia which may come from the ocean. When a liverock from my main tank ends up with too much algae to control I swap it out with the liverock in the reservoir. The liverock not only had some tube worms that survived 2 weeks without much light, but also some algae.
Can anyone identify this algae? Have I created a batman problem? Killing off all the villains and leaving myself with only supervillains!
