Orange glow

Dombake · 01/20/2016, 02:32 PM

Hi I've just added a few more blue LED's (low level for evenings) and noticed this funny orange glow coming from one of my love rocks. The Rock has a pretty good covering of coralline on it and the glow is coming from the cracks. Can anyone tell me what it is and should I be happy or concerned?

Thanks in advance.

something is flourescing.

Any ideas what it could be? It's not something that appears to be moving.

I've seen certain algae turn bright orange when they die. .. usually see it after we clean a sponge or something and then put it back in the tank
