macro algae

Hi ID Experts! Thank you for taking the time to look. Here's something that we found last weekend while at the beach. (Lido / Sarasota - Gulf of Mexico) I added it to my main tank, but now I am second-guessing it since some responses to my OTHER POST about macros that we put into my Son's...

Hello, I'm in the process of setting up what will be a 55 gallon macroalgae tank, and was wondering if there is any specific salt that I should use that will give me the best chance, or if it doesn't even matter. Salt like Natural salt water, red sea coral pro, instant ocean, etc. And any...

Noticed this on one of my rocks amongst some GHA, floats like some kind of balloon stuck to the rock. Does anyone know what it is?

Looking to add different macro algae’s to my new seahorse tank and refugium and these are two I’m trying to track down. Was considering eBay and taking the gamble but wanted to see if anyone had any first?

I have grown some rare yellow orange variant of the normal dragon breath algae, and I name it JJR dragon flame. It is still red under natural light, but blue spectrum reveals the brilliant yellow orange color. They feel a bit softer than normal dragon breath, but is alive and growing. DOA...

I have been looking a macro algae and I heard about the macro lady and was wondering how good is the algae they have?

I have been looking into macro algae and was wondering where I could buy it (my lfs doesn’t have any.)

I have a 10 gallon reef tank with a clown some live rock and a xenia. I saw a tank with macro algae and decided to look into it… would it be ok with the coral?

so I’m working on plumbing a display refugium/macro algae tank into my main display tank which is a 135g. My main question is when can I add macros, and when should I add a clean up crew. Specifically snails, conchs, and sand sifting starfish to keep the sand bed turned over. Side note, I’ve had...

What is a good macro algae to use inside a display tank? I’m constantly fighting nitrates and phosphates, and I have an aquatop 40 cube AIO, so a refugium is not very easily done. I’m looking for a macro algae I can put in my display tank that will be 1.) Safe for corals : I know a lot of...

hey guys, recently i've gotten into salt water aquariums and currently have a 13 gallon AIO tank hosting mushroom corals, a damsel fish, and a few crabs aswell as my macro algae. everything used to look so good but after a while the flame macro started to go opake as well as growing some sort of...

Hey all, I am in the process of setting up a reef tank. It is a 135g with two fx4 canister filters. I understand the issues presented with canister filters, but I had them from a freshwater set up and wanted to use them. I understand a sump is preferred however I’m going to use these filters. My...

Just wanted to share my newest reef experiment! Last week I bought a mangrove sapling from my LFS which sparked the idea to make a very small pico tank housing the mangrove and maybe some macroalgae and or zoas/palys. I ran down to homegoods and found a roughly 3/4gallon cookie jar and threw in...

32oz deli cups full of Chaetomorpha Macroalgae stuffed into quart size ziplock bags with some clean 1.025 water for $10 per bag. Local pickup / meetup is in the Bradenton area.

So I have been doing some research, as I am just getting into the saltwater/reef side of the aquarium hobby. And I’d really like to add some macro algae to my new reef tank build. It is a 135 gallon. I like the look of macros and of course all the benefits of them, so I’d like to put it in my...

How quickly would it use up phosphate and nitrate? My tank is at 0.03ppm phosphate and 18ppm. 45G total

Hey reef team, I've got a 25 gallon innovative marine AIO tank. I've been dealing with a bit of hair algae growing on my macro algae, as well as a ton of bubble algae growing on the rocks and frag plugs. I just tested my parameters and currently Alk is 7.5dkh, Ca is 750, Phosphates are 0.0 and...

A little story of the progress of my tank reboot. I’m excited with how it's coming along so far, and who better to share with than fellow SW aquarium enthusiasts! :) The Tech: Aquatop Reclife ECO 40g AIO Helio Smart Heater (1x 200W titanium single element) – was going to get the dual element...

I just finished cycling a 10g tank that I want to use for macroalgae only. I have chaetogrow, neophos, and neonitro. In addition to dosing those, do I need some kind of ammonia source so the beneficial bacteria don’t die or does that not matter….or is neonitro that ammonia/ nitrogen source for...

So I been fighting with high nutrient in my tank for couple months now. I’ve added 2oz Chaeto before but green hair algae killed it in my Refugium. But I’ve decided to try one more time with better light(tunze purple light) and 4oz of chaeto this time, it’s been about 2 weeks now and it’s...

Looking for an algae reactor for my 310g. Just the reactor don’t need a pump and all that. Don’t want to spend $700 like I’ve seen a few out there. Any recommendations? Probably $100-300 range?

Hello, I am in the process of starting a 16 gallon macro algae lagoon aquarium with some invertebrates. I was curious if RODI water was necessary for a macro algae tank like it is for a coral heavy aquarium. I am not necessarily opposed to RODI but I live in a studio and there are not any...
