Algea, Algea filters & Algea lamps
Algae, algae filters & algae lamps are all the rage again. Filtering over algae is the most natural way to keep the concentration of nitrate, phosphate and CO2 in your aquarium at the correct level. Redox value is increased enormously and PH value becomes unprecedentedly stable. Certainly with a so-called reverse cycle (algae lighting on, when the lighting above the aquarium is off).
Seaweed & algae
Seaweed, algae, and plankton play a vital role in a healthy marine aquarium. They are ideal for use in refugiums, where they help bind excess nutrients and thus contribute to better and more stable water quality. Their natural growth supports the biological balance in the aquarium and reduces unwanted algae growth in the main system. In addition, seaweed and algae are perfect for specialized aquariums with, for example, shrimp, seahorses, or pipefish. They provide shelter, foraging opportunities, and a natural habitat where these animals feel safe and exhibit natural behavior. Plankton is a valuable addition and an important natural food source for many filter feeders, microfauna, and young animals. Together, seaweed, algae, and plankton create a vibrant, stable, and healthy marine aquarium that closely resembles nature.
