I know i’m nitpicking here but in the interest of growing coraline algae in the future, is it true that you need to maintain 78 and up for it to grow (aside from the other needs like ph,Ca, and Lighting etc)

My tank is on inkbird and ranges from 77.6 to 78.3. Is that ok to get it seeeded?

I've never heard of coraline needing a certain temp maintained to grow.

see this is the problem. Someone says something and it sticks in my head. Don’t remember if someone here said that or it was a google search.

It is always good to double check the information. I will also mention that when I was into seahorses, I had no problem growing coralline at 72 degrees.

My tank has been running about 4 months now and I have it popping up. It runs from 76 to 78 pending inside temp.
