Halimeda Incrassata is a beautiful medium fast growing green macroalgae which is non-invasive and calcified, which means it needs good calcium levels in the tank to thrive. This beautiful marine algae has stiff, segmented flat shaped fronds which can grow up to 30 cm. and this algae does best when placed in the marine aquarium substrate where it will be kept in place by rhizoids.
This macro algae will arrive unattached. If you prefer it already attached to a zoa cone please add the amount of cones you need HERE.
Halimeda Incrassata Marine Macroalgae
Premium Marine Macro algae for the Planted Reef Display Tank & Refugium for sale on Live Algae UK.
Your 1st choice for clean Marine Macroalgae from Fish & Copper free tanks since 2014.
Palatable
The Halimeda Incrassata macroalgae is a very calcified marine algae and therefore is not often eaten by fishes and critters.
Attaching
Although this live algae can grow on rock ( by super gluing it for the start ) it will spread wider when it is placed in a sand bed or gravel, which should be preferable. between 5-10cm deep.
Trimming
Whitish parts of this macro algae should be removed as they are decomposing. Out of water and in transit it might turn white/grey, but back in the water, it will turn after a few hours back green again.
Treatment
Like for most marine macroalgae a higher level of Nitrate and Phosphate, in addition to the supplement of Iron, Magnesium and Trace elements will improve the growth of this live algae.
If the macroalgae is not growing as expected a special formulated fertiliser for the marine aquarium can help to improve the growth of the macroalgae. Please find a selection of supplements for the marine aquarium HERE
Please note
Our macroalgae are from fish free macro algae tanks, although we use sometimes pictures for demonstration purposes only which will include fishes, seahorses and or corals.
We do our best to quarantine, treat and remove any unwanted hitchhikers, parasites etc from our macro algae but we can not guarantee that the algae are completely free of anything unwanted, not limited to Copepods, Rotifers etc. This is simply because that sometimes eggs, spores, etc can remain viable but not visible and hitchhikers can still stay hidden, especially in dense algae structures, despite our strict quarantine efforts.
We highly recommend nonetheless that you properly quarantine anything new before adding it to your marine tank.
We aim to offer you the healthiest and best quality macro algae on the market, therefore, all of our macro algae comes with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.
