Default Macro
What is the macro algae for? Does it serve a putpose or just look neat?

Macro algae are great for nutrient export. They suck up excess nutrients from the water, improving water quality. Plus these are some of the more beautiful macro algaes around. Much prettier than the typical chaeto or caulerpa sp.

I'd take 2 bags. How much to ship to Toronto area (L1V6Y8)? I imagine not much water is required in the bag.

If anyone from Abbotsford area is getting some, can you grab a bag for me? Will not be heading into town again for awhile.

is it true that you need to cut chaeto etc often to take out nutrients that they absorbed?
I heard they only absorb and dont transform.
