    coraline algae color

    I have green, pink, maroon, and purple. These colors were all on my rock when i got it in little patches. If one of your friends have a piece of rock with the color you want on it, borrow it turn off your current and scrape it off over your tank. If they'll let ya borrow it that is!HAHA
