    Great looking stuff, may get a picture later on....but if you want really nice brown gracilaria for your tank I have a bunch now. Just order a red gracilaria and leave me the comment "sub brown".

    thanks!

    oh and ulva is finally back. Late winter selection coming soon,....:)

    this brown gracilaria is starting to run low. i have some still, but not the specific specimens i was thinking of when i posted this. still good though....

    ulva is short, early in the season but very healthy and a nice bright green. thin leaf variety at the moment, looks small in the bag but each plant is a baseball or so.

    in soup, miso broth...:)


    seriously though, don't eat it - you will have USDA mad at me


    on a different note, I have eaten Halymenia, ulva, sargassum, and gracilaria raw. Salty. Halymenia raw is the nastiest thing on earth.
