You can see from this image that the green algae continues to slowly recede in favor of the red and pink coralline algae. What caused the abundant red fuzzy algae to die back and be overrun by the green is still something I don’t know, but I have always suspected (hoped!) that it was a temporary cyclical thing. I’ve removed a fair amount of detached algae bits with recent water changes and will remove more in future water changes.
