Is this Green Coraline?
This green has been spreading like crazy the last 2 weeks. Its only covering the rocks its not furry or anything just a thin layer covering the rocks.

It could be green cyano but it also could be green coraline. If it doesn't come off the rock it's not cyano.

I had that same color on my pukani rock when towards the end of my cycle, it unfortunately quickly went away and was taken over by hair algae.
I believe it is a form of coralline so for you I hope it stay, I wasn't so lucky
