Will someone please recommend a macroalgae that is great for the refugium and a tasty treat for herbivores like tangs? More importantly where to purchase your recommendation.

Thanks. The link you sent for purchasing is out of stock of most items. I tried Algae Barn and they have some but were out of the green ogo which I would really like to try. Have you ever tried pom pom or sea lettuce?

My tangs like sea lettuce, red gracilaria, and chaeto. I dont think sea lettuce does as well for nutrient export like chaeto in a fuge but you can combine a variety of macros and see what works. Reef cleaners, live Aquaria, tidal gardens etc all sell it. I get mine here:
Great selection although they run out of stock too, never had any issues w what I buy.
