Macro Algae

Can anys uggest a good macro Algae to use in a main display tank, I like the Dragons Breath algae but am looking for something a little more hardy

 

Some Macro Algae can grow uncontrollably and is undesirable in the main tank. It may need constant trimming and it can release spores which will cloud your water. Most of these varieties are in the Caulerpa family. Here is a link to view and if you like, to purchase. I have bought some stuff from this person before and have not had any thing but a good experience.

Thanks Diver,

I am trying to get a gauge on using macro alge in my display tank, to "scrub" the problem algae out of my water. I am gong thru a brown algae attack now.

 

I know, I have been reading your posts ;D
It will eventually go away, my brown algae attack didn't even phase me. Now the red cyno... I think that was the worst. I scrubbed those rocks with a toothbrush every over day for 2 weeks.

Thanks for reading the post Diver. I think I have about 100pgs of material to read this weekend on Brown Algae. Diver I see what you guys were talking about the brown alage running it course, this moring I noticed as spot complety free of the "Brown Goo" it seems some small patches of green algae were growing in the same spot and chocked the brown algae out. Hopefully in the next week or so I can start putting some critters in there. Will keep you guys posted.

 

Raven no problem this site has been a huge help.
