Hello eveyone,
I recently added Red Gracilaria Algae to my refugium a week ago. I noticed that parts of the plant are turning white... well, actually, clear. I think this is obviously a sign that it is dying. Most of the plants showing these signs are kind of floating about, not in the mud like the others which remain healthy looking. Do these plants NEED to be in the mud in order to grow? I know some plants can freely float in the water and do fine
Also, Will these dying plant parts foul my water? Should I remove them? How do dying plants affect water chemistry?
Thanks in advance!
Michael
