Where to buy cool macro algae?

SoloChromis · 07/14/2015, 08:47 PM

I'm trying to stock my new 60g with an assortment of macro algae, but I'm finding it hard to track down anything other than the common species (cheato, caleurpa, ulva). I'm wondering if anyone here knows a good online vendor to order some of the more exotic, less common macro algae, such as string of pearls, blue ochtodes, blue scroll, tufted joint algae etc. Thanks guys

Try the coral propagation forums here. There's a few people selling macro "starter packs"- I'm actually waiting on a transaction now!

FinAquatics and esquire805,

I need some caulerpa brachypus and red gracilaria. Do you have any for sale at the moment? What do you charge? Shipped to Sacramento, CA 95828

Reach out to me via pm if you'd like. I know I have extra graciliaria, but need to verify if I can try the caulerpa.
