This was labeled as Dragon's Breath when I got my hands on it, but after a month or two in my main display under intense lighting from my freshwater spectrum light it took on a very dense form like this. Grows in that less fluffy, more sharp-and-twisty way that dragon's breath is supposed to...
When green and brown macroalgae begin to die, they turn pale/darkened in coloration (I assume the Fucoxanthin in brown macroalgae/Chlorophyll in green macroalgae that colors the algae is breaking down) before melting away. However, red macroalgae goes neon-orange and fluoresces under blue light...

Hi all,
I am a marine biologist and need some seaweed of the genus Asparagopsis sp. (Limu kohu) for my research. I wonder if any of you have cultures, or know where I could purchase it, as getting it from the sea is complicated nowadays. Thanks a lot!
