How do you scape with macroalgae?

[Nemesis of Pistol Shrimps]

Hello I’m setting up a new macro algae aquarium but this question has always puzzled me. How am I supposed to make the algae stay put where I want them? Do I glue them to a rock? Stick them to a sand? Rubber band them? Does it vary from species to species?

I used to do freshwater planted in the past but even with those the way you attach the plants depended on the species. So if anyone has any idea, please let me know!

(btw I have chaeto, dragon breath, pom pom)

You have to glue it where you want it. But really, just let it do it's thing. It won't ever really stay where you want it to.

I have the Pom Poms and Halimeda in my tank.

both are rooted, so I just shoved them into the sand bed.
