The Red Gracilaria Algae is a dark to light red algae that is a nutritious natural food source for herbivorous fish and invertebrates. Tangs and angels go nuts for this alga, and it will help boost their immune systems. Adding some to a refugium with moderate flow and lighting will allow the Gracilaria to grow, which gives you a constant source to keep your fish happy. They can also be anchored to rockwork and will eventually take root and grow there as well.
- - Can be added to refugiums or attached to rockwork
- - Reef safe

Directions
ACCLIMATION: Avoid exposing new aquatic life to bright lights after opening the box. Turn off aquarium lights prior to floating aquatic life. Allow the sealed bag with your new fish to float in your aquarium for at least 15 minutes (but no longer than one hour) to ensure the water in the bag matches the temperature in your aquarium. A bacteria booster addition can assist with the addition of new aquatic life. Petco offers free water testing in store to determine if your water is safe for the addition of new aquatic life. DIET: A well-balanced diet consists of a variety of flakes, pellets, freeze-dried and frozen foods, depending on the species. FEEDING: Feed sparingly and no more than fish can eat in 1-2 minutes. Overfeeding can quickly foul the water, especially in smaller aquariums.
