Algae and Polyp I.D. HELP

MiracleFish · 05/08/2013, 10:44 AM

I need help ID'ing these algae's growing in my tank a long with these two polyp frags I bought from a LFS.

It's a red hair algae, it's not growing on the sand and I don't want to assume its cyano even though that's how it looks.

As for this one, I forget what type of plant algae this is, I feel like it's calupa. And also there's a green like hair algae in the top left of the picture if I could get ID.

And here are the polyps

The polyps both look like Radioactive Dragon Eyes to me. As far as the algae goes, check this link out.
