My experience with coraline algae has been that it doesn't take much time out of water to make it die and turn white. I wounldn't worry about it too much as long as your water tests out good.
Very nice rockwork, BTW!

No trees were harmed in the writing of this post. However, several electrons were GREATLY inconvenienced.

Coraline grows quick in a stable tank. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
On the other hand, your columns are really cool. Any pics of the building process?

Thanks, I don't have any pics...I'm so bad at documenting stuff.
I used a 5/8" acrylic rod, put it in the oven so I could bend it, let it cool. I did not glue it to the acrylic sheet because the base rock I used was pretty heavy, deep, and stable. The rest of the rock I just picked and drilled. You can't tell in the pic, but the only problem I had was placing the acrylic sheet below the sand. What a pain! I still did not get it completely under the sand so it doesn't look as bent as it should. I'll keep working on it, but because of the height of the tank, I cannot reach the bottom.

It's almost cubish 36Lx24Wx28H. I was worried too, but it seems pretty secure... I hope I didn't just jinx it...
