I have a 10g fuge tank which is on always with led spot light equivalent to 75w. I grow chaeto like crazy.

If i add red graci or dragon breath. ...will they be ok with constant ON ?

Thx. ...
 
Your chaeto may out compete the others over time. Red gracilaria grows quickly like chaeto. Dragon breath is a lot slower. IMO, The big question is why leave the light on 24/7? This usually promotes cyano. Your macro should have a non lit period.
