calurpa

[margaritaville]

how much calurpa is needed per gallon or what not to actually see a reduction in nitrates?

I wouldn't recommend putting it in your display tank, it will spread like crazy! I started off with one "leaf" that I put in for my tang to eat. He didn't eat it and it's been out of control since. Twice a week I have to hand-prune it and then a couple days later all my rock is covered again. It's a better idea to keep it in a refugium if you can. I know there are better species of macro algae to keep that don't go nuts, hopefully someone else will suggest a better option?

I started with about 2 cups worth now I have enough to fill a milk crate so I would start with about that much
