I don't think that's algae but I have no idea what it could be...

A plant? Bacteria?

Looks like Caloglossa. A red algae sometimes sold as a red moss.

Most of my java moss has browning spots but a lot of new shoots too. I was told that old becomes brown and it's fine, as long as there's new growth. I'll definitely follow this thread, as my tank mostly consist of java moss.

Monster Fish, yeah, it is! http://www.mikroskopie-forum.de/index.php?topic=17828.0
Thank you, you're real pro!
This algae is bad or good?

Hunter, it can be brown algae too. You need some flow on java moss and syphon it.

Seems like there is little information about it used in aquariums but I see that the Germans have tried it. As interesting as it is I would try to grow it if I were you.

Depends if you want it everywhere. It can become a weed and attach to everything in your tank.

Hmmm...

So I removed some, put it in the small bowl with ferts (API Leaf Zone and Flourish comprehensive) on direct sunlight.

Do I need to add liquid carbon?

Right now it's only attach to java moss.

It can be if you have it in moss and it attaches somewhere you don't see it.

I'll try to create a ball from it and put in on my tree.
You think sunlight and liquid carbon will help? (in a glass bowl).

Nerite snails, Oto catfish or shrimps will eat it?
