Approximately 18 hours ago I seeded my ATS with GHA, as it was all I had growing in my refugium other then Chaeto. and there has already been significant growth. its incredible! however, every time I research ATS I hear everyone talking about Ulva algae... I would love to know how y'all are getting the lush green yields of Ulva and how do I get it to seed my own ATS? Thanks in advance!

From my experience I have found 2 types of ulva. One likes to grow on rocks and one likes to float on the surface. I would think if you can find one that grows on rocks you could try that.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
