“We will take care of you and make it right”

If for any reason you decide something isn’t quite ultra grade, simply snap a photo of the unopened item(s) you would like replaced. Be sure to get the expiration date on the back label in the photo. After that, visit www.algaebarn.com/claims and submit the form. We’ll review the photo and have a replacement out to you faster than a six-line wrasse at feeding time.

Captive Bred Fish: We guarantee every Live Fish we ship to be 100% Alive On Arrival and we also offer a 7-day health guarantee on all Live Captive Bred Fish.

If the fish is DOA, we will offer you a choice of either a full refund or a free replacement, including the shipping cost. If the fish expires from natural causes (this does not include being killed by tank mates, jumping out of the aquarium, being acclimated to the wrong environment, not being fed the recommended foods) within 7 days after delivery, just provide a picture of the expired fish and we will offer you a free replacement, however, you must pay for shipping, or a refund, less the shipping cost. We can offer this industry leading guarantee on all of our live fish because Captive Bred fish are generally healthier and hardier than their wild-caught counterparts!

Pom Pom Gracilaria macroalgae Gracilaria hayi

The Pom Pom Gracilaria hayi plant, sometimes referred to as Red Bush macroalgae, is an exceptionally beautiful macroalgae. Between bright red and burgundy in hue and graced with sharply tapered, flame-like fronds, it adds a splash of color and texture to any refugium or saltwater aquarium. Pom Pom 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: Pom Pom Gracilaria can be grown out in the refugium and new growth can be trimmed and fed to herbivorous fish as a tasty treat.

    I decided to go with the smaller “golf ball” size piece of gracilaria to add to my display tank for a nice pop of color and texture. They must use huge golfballs in Colorado because I received one piece about the size of a large lemon with two smaller pieces about the size of a walnut. The stuff looks great, nice and healthy with a beautiful burgundy color. 100% recommend this macro, well worth the $15. Can’t imagine how much you’ll get if you order the 1lb package.

    There was a slight delay with USPS (3 days) so i was fearing the worst. Then when i got the package i opened it up. They packed everything very well. a wool lined bag with a heat pack (I live in Minnesota). The algae and other goods i got in the bag were still alive and moving around like nothing was wrong. The “golf ball” size was a loose term i would say, it would be closer to a baseball size. Came in a nice plastic jar tightly packed with a little water for transport. My lawnmower blenny and my Halloween urchin b-lined to it and ate almost half already (2 days in the tank). going need to order a larger one next time. Great product and worth the wait
