Regular price

Pickup currently unavailable
Ignite your reef aquarium with Dragon’s Breath Macroalgae, a stunning Halymenia species prized for its intense pink-to-purple frilly fronds. Perfectly suited to both display tanks and refugia, this aquacultured macroalga brings organic nutrient export and vivid color contrast to your marine environment.
Key Features
- Vibrant Color: Deep red-purple ribbon-like blades that deepen in hue under bluish actinic lighting.
- Natural Filtration: Rapidly absorbs nitrates and phosphates, helping maintain crystal-clear water.

- Herbivore-Friendly: Trimmed cuttings serve as a nutritious snack for tangs, rabbitfish, urchins, and other algae-eaters.
- Aquacultured Quality: Cultivated in closed-system farms to ensure hitchhiker-free, hardy specimens adapted to aquarium life.

I have been ordering Copepods for many years and I never notice any reaction from my fish or corals when I bought from other places not so buying from Pod Your Reef! The copepods were alive and well! You could even see some swimming around in the tank my mushroom corals went crazy! Highly recommend getting your copepods from here!
