Dragons' Breath

[zygote2k]

I recently purchased a big clump of Dragons' Breath red algae. I attached it to a lettuce clip to encourage the fish to eat it- which they and the turbo snails did. I wanted to grow more of it, but the fish shredded it to bits. It also seemed to grow slow in the refugium. A small piece got sucked up by the Koralia and was lodged in the screen at the end. In 2 weeks time, it grew almost 6" long and took the form of long, flowing, red and orange fire.

 

I now attach it to the eductor and place it at the surface directly under the halide. It seems to thrive under these conditions.

Very neat

 

Might have to try some in high flow/intense light myself.
