Description
Green Ogo Gracilaria Live Macroalgae
The Green Ogo (Gracilaria Tikvahiae) plant is an exceptionally beautiful macroalgae. With a dark green hue and short bushy fronds, it adds a splash of color and texture to any refugium or saltwater aquarium. Green Ogo Gracilaria is a fast growing and hardy macroalgae when kept under proper conditions. It is also great for nutrient export in saltwater aquarium systems. Additionally, it is prized by many herbivorous fish keepers (especially tangs) as a healthy live seaweed food. Pro Tip: Green Ogo Gracilaria can be grown out in the refugium and new growth can be trimmed and fed to herbivorous fish as a tasty treat.
