Refugium algae feed to fish

[De Gregoriis Oatrick]

Can I feed the harvested algae in my refugium to my fish or best to dispose of it ?

Dnt see why not mate

Because of the accumulated Po4 and/or no3 ?

The po4 and no3 was consumed by the algae won’t be released back in the water column.

They do love fresh algae, just look out for invasive caleurpa species as you would want that to start growing on your reef, but Cheeto and most red algaes should be fine

In worst case my 10 tangs and others will be scraping the rocks if I cut down on food..
