    These will be small frags for just £3.24 each algae species, if you prefer normal sizes we recommend rather to get the algae you prefer directly on our website.

    Refugium Nitrate & Phosphate Remover Macroalgae Starter Pack

    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.

    You will receive a selection of 4 fast growing macroalgae species for a successful start:

    For example out of:

    We will pack a selection of fast-growing macroalgae for you which will be perfect for the nutrients export and perfect for to place in a macroalgae refugium.

    With those four fast growing marine macroalgae species you will get a great start to reduce the Nitrate and Phosphate levels in your marine aquarium.

    The marine algae frags you will receive will be smaller than the single algae species we sell, but they will give you nonetheless a  great possibility to successfully start your very own macroalgae culture.

    A perfect choice if you like to see your new algae species growing and thriving in your tank. If you have any herbivore ( algae eating ) fishes in your aquarium we recommend to keep them away from them for the start by maybe letting them grow in a refugium.

    If you buy this Macroalgae Starter Pack in combination with another algae pack it might be that you will get the same macroalgae again, although we try to avoid this.

    As this refugium macroalgae starter-pack includes Caulerpa macroalgae species please have a look at the Caulerpa Case

    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. 

    All macroalgae will be thoroughly dipped in a professional solution to deactivate hitchhikers as good as possible before posting. If you don't want this, please send us a message together with your order.

    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.

      hello, just getting into marine and macroalgae. I am looking at buying the starter pack of 4 you sell and then pick 2 other ones but I don't want the same ones to come in the pack than I pick, which ones come in the set or is it random? And what hap ...

      Hi Jack. Thank you for your message. When a starter pack is bought together with other macroalgae we will always try to add other macroalgae species for you and we normally pack them as they come.
      When you buy two packs it might be that you get some similar algae species.

      I would recommend adding macroalgae when the tank is established and you have the fishes already in for a while.
      As with them your tank normally will have enough nitrate and phosphate the macroalgae will need to grow. The other nutrients macroalgae will need to grow you normally will have enough when you do normal water changes.
      In other words no need for any fertilizer :) Just in a macroalgae only tank, or where nitrate is below 2ppm / or phosphate below 0.02 it will beneficial to use a fertilizer or a special supplement to replace the used nutrients.

    Not for me

    By Russell Brookes on 23/04/2020 Refugium Macroalgae Starter-Set0 of 0 people found the following review helpful

    Postage and service very good. Would use the company again. However the TM Algae added to an establish system soon turned white, after reading the link about it possibly going sexual, it was removed straight away. I am no expert but I had noticed it had grown and wasnt prepared to chance it at all if it was going sexual.

    Hi Russell.Thank you for taking the time to leave a feedback as we have not heard from you before about your experience and we are happy to give some further information here.Unfortunately due to the Coronavirus the free posting option you have chosen takes currently much longer with Royal Mail than normal. Although we value the hard work of all delivery workers do in those uncertain times it is not very good for perishable goods like our macro algae when they are to long in transit hence we highly recommend to choose the express delivery option at the checkout which works so far still very well.After adding macro algae to a new water environment It is very hard to say why macroalgae don\'t do well in an aquarium as there are quite a few parameters interacting with it. Therefore we recommend to take a picture on arrival when something does not look right as we offer of course a Full Satisfaction Guarantee on arrival as described on our website to ensure that the algae you have received are in the best quality possible and up to your  expectations.Certainly we are more than happy to help you to find the problem why they don\'t do well in your tank.- Your current water parameters, especially Nitrate, Phosphate, Alkalinity, PH, Salinity, Magnesium, Calcium and Temperature.- Do you dose any Iodine or Iron?- Do you use or have recently used any Chemicals, like Copper, Nitrate / Phosphate remover or any other chemical treatment?- What light do you use, especially the  light colour spectrum, intensity and running time?- Can you provide some pictures of it on arrival and current?- Do you have any other macro algae in your tank ? If so what kind?  The nitrate remover starter pack you have ordered are fast growing macro algae species which need good nutrients in the tank and often we noticed that Rowaphos or similiar was used, which unfortunately removes as well trace elements the macroalgae need to grow.We try our best as we want you to be happy with your new addition as this did not work out we invite to contact us directly with further informations regards the above mentioned points to see why id did not work out this time.Please stay safe and well.ManfredLivealgae UK
