Default Re: Keeping Macroalgae in DT

That's a good idea to keep the new macroalgae quarantined particurlarly those are attached to the live rocks. I've kept many kinds of algae in both the DT and sump ( over 25 types ) and it looks perfectly natural. The drawback is some of the fishes like the rabbit, tang & large angel can not be kept in the DT for eating up the algae in mins particularly the rabbit fish and another disadvantage is keeping various types of marcoalgae will also attract those unwanted species.
