Still got some of these macros lefts.

Please Note: I do have to ask for $10 for shipping at this point. Due to the cold weather, I had to upgrade my heatpacks to combat the weather which costed a bit more...

Thank you SO much!! I'm so excited, my macros showed up today, and thank you for the bonuses!! The heat pack was still warm, nice job!!

Can I use super glue get to attach to rock rubble?
What would be the best way to attach the blue scroll (it's actually greenish at the moment, is this due to lack of light or oxygen?). I can't wait to get them into the tank!!

Thanx again!! LOVE them!!

Most Types you can just super glue down.. However I would NOT superglue the blue scroll.. It will not respond well to the glue. Simpley wedge between/on some rocks and it adheres pretty quickly.. As far as the brown/green coloration that is very typical after shipping. The vibrant blue will come with time and does depend on the light as well.. If it grows out and does not turn blue, tear some off in the future and try moving around the tank to see if the colors illuminates it better in a different spot. I have the blue scroll in multiple areas of my tank and depending on from where you are looking the color does vary a little bit..

Time to bump up a very old thread of mine.

Doing some "springish" cleaning... Trimming back some types.

Can offer the following varieties of macro algae. Same as before, each clipping is $7 plus $7 per shipping. Willing to make combo deals

- Green Codium Fragile
- Green Cladophora Sp
- Red Razor Bryothamnion
- Brown Galaxaura Subverticillata
- Blue Scroll Padina Sp
- Red Bush Graciliaria Hayi
- Red Graciliaria Mammaris
- Caulerpa Mexicana
- Red / Purple Dictoya
- Red Fern Haliptilon Sp
- Red Micro Fern Gelidium Sp

All my macro is truly tank grown. None is ordered from divers and chopped up like some sellers on these forums.

Shoot me a message and we can work something out.

This is the tank that the majority of my trimmings come from

Yes. The entire upper right hand side in the full tank shot is actually blue scroll. Doesn't reflect well in the phot however. Here's another photo that shows the nice blue coloration

that blue scroll is sexy. Once these turbo snails are done clearing the tank of red turf algae I may have to hit you up.

Very nice, makes me miss my old 75gal macro tank. Made the mistake of using regular sand and planted tank media for sea grasses that never did well. Ended up fighting dyno all the time.

Nothing too crazy. Got two sets of fluval LEDs (1x that's for marine and reef as well as 1x that's for freshwater plant tanks). On top of this I have one China made led pendant just for a little extra lighting
