| Macroalgae > Macroalgae Macroalgae are healthy and most flavorful additions to the diet of many reef aquarium species. For many species of fish it is vital to proper nutrition. Many popular saltwater aquarium fish are herbivores, feeding primarily on algae growing on the coral reefs. In fact, a healthy diet rich in amino and fatty acids provided by algae will increase the longevity of reef fishes kept in aquariums. Further, a diet made up of algae promotes better color, health, and vitality of most Tangs, many Angelfish, and some Wrasses. For years people have been feeding their fish "substitute algae" such as raw lettuce and spinach. These greens are acidic in nature and freshwater in composition. Marine algae have the necessary salts and minerals that fish require. |
