Algae alternatives for algae reactor

[Jakeem]

Chaeto is hard to find in ny country and LfS, are there alternatives of algae for an algae reactor?

You could probably use anything as long as it doesn't need to be rooted in a substrate to grow.

I definitely wouldn't worry about the algae taking over a DT. Look into algae like gracilaria or dragons breath as chaeto alternatives.

Build/buy algae scrubber. I'm my opinion its way better .
I build my scrubber for 50$ total and it's doing great work.

Do you already own a reactor; or are you still considering buying/building one?

I currently already own a reactor.
