So I just got my new tank, REALLY NICE DEAL.. Anyways, it was used as a reef tank previously and has coralline algae covering the back wall and sides(pretty thick). I am in the process of cleaning it off with vinegar and razor blades...
Anyways, wondering.... If one was to use a BG to cover it, would the algae have any good properties for cichlids? Since it is dead and won't grow.. Such as buffering and or the hardness.. I understand that this algae is mostly calcium?
