Macro Algae in Nano Reefs

Hi folks.

I have seen tanks online that have different macro algae growing in them, but I never seem to see any discussion of them here in these forums. Just wondering why there seems to be little interest in them?

Most people keep micro algae in the refugium and not the main tank because it can over take your corals and choke them out. I've seen some display refugiums online.

That's too bad, as I thought some macro would really compliment a tank nicely.

I'm actually going to place some in my wife's new gorgonian tank. I think it'll look nice mixed in with the sea whips, sponges, etc.

I'm still doing the research on the type of micro algae I'm gonna put in there. I don't want anything that's gonna become a nuisance and choke out the corals...there's so many of them out there to choose from.
