I have a couple pieces of live rock that are about 8 months old. There are small (3/4 inches) red sticks about the size of a pencil lead or smaller growing out of them. These sticks have a white spot on the end (mouth?) and I think they ooze a spider web looking string out of the end. Sorry...

My tank is about 6-7 months old and I have green algae growing all over the glass on the back of the tank. It's not growing on any live rock just on the glass. I am wondering if there is any real harm in letting it grow. It grows so much that chunks of it come off sometimes and float around...

Greetings. Wishing everyone a fantastic New Year. My first question: Has anyone successfully used just plain stick or liquid epoxy, like you can get at walmart to glue live rock together? Just looking to save a few bucks over the "marine" epoxy. I'm worrying that it may have some toxicity to...
