Best Macro Algae for macro algae reactor??

[bam123]

Just curious what the best macro algae is for a macro algae reactor. It seems like everyone goes for chaeto. Any other experiences?

I’ve had great with success with chaeto but I’m currently trying out sea lettuce aka ulva in my reactor. I’m in week 2 with it and it’s definitely growing. I’m probably going to give it another week or so of growth before harvesting. It seems to grow a darker shade of green in my reactor than it does in the tank.

at least tangs will eat ulva. I think I may go that route

I’ll post a picture here when I harvest it. I’ve started experimenting with my reactor to see what algae works best for the tank. I’m planning on trying a few others on algae barn after the ulva.
