Bogdan Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I am looking for nice macroalgae red or green to grow in the tank. I want them to extract the phosphate from the water and starve to death the hairalgae that I cant get rid off. I know that some of the macroalgae are quite good looking. Let me know if you happen to have something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+o0zarkawater Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I've got some Ulva that came from the coast with the peppermint shrimp I had. Be more than willing to give you some if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogdan Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Does it look good? I googled some pictures and it doesn't look very decorative. What you say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+o0zarkawater Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I think its pretty cool looking, but usually people put it in their sumps/refugium to pull nutrients out of the water along with other Macros. I've tried a couple times to keep it in my DT, only to have it eaten by my Sailfin tang, and hermit crabs. http://www.aphotomarine.com/green_seaweed_sea_lettuce_ulva_lactuca.html I wouldn't mind having that in my tank personally.
