Description
Macro algae is a great way to reduce nitrates and phosphates in saltwater aquariums. Often thought of as a plants, algae are actually part of the Protista Biological Kingdom. Unlike plants, they can survive without roots, as they absorb water and nutrients through their entire body.An excellent resource for marine hobbyists, not only making water clearer and coral brighter, but macro algae can also reduce, and eventually eliminate, the need for water changes altogether.
Most Red Gracilaria can survive a range of conditions. In the wild it often grows alongside Mangroves in estuaries; however, in captivity it can usually adapt to standard reef tank conditions. It prefers medium to strong waterflow and medium lighting. With over 100 species, identification can be difficult, but the characteristics of this Gracilaria best resemble the species Parvispora. Gracilaria can sit/float freely or be attached to live rock at the base with super glue gel. Your purchase is for 1 or more large pieces of live Red Gracilaria macro algae.
