This ornamental macroalgae is commonly called Shaving Brush Plant as it features a long stalk with leaves growing like a brush. A great addition for the marine tank which can compete which corals easily. Once in the aquarium it is easy to keep placed in a deep enough substrate. This species grows taller than other Pecillus species.

Palatable
The Penicillus Dumetosus marine algae is not very palatable.
Attaching
This macroalgae is best kept in the substrate, where it will develop rhizoids to hold itself in place.
Trimming
Whitish parts of this macro algae should be removed as they are decomposing.
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. As it is a calcified macroalgae a sufficient Calcium level should be maintained.
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.
