I want to find out the opinions of other aquarists on this subject.
What type of macroalgae do you prefer for denitrification, and why do
you prefer it? I'm looking to populate my 'fuge with some macro, as
my bubble caulerpa all died off a couple weeks ago. I haven't
determined exactly why, despite a gamut of water tests.

I prefer cheatomorpha, which looks like green steel wool.
Grows great, doesn't demand lighting, and doesn't go sexual.

I wasn't very optimistic about them having it, but I asked at the LFS
for it. Paul, the marine guru at this establishment, says he chooses
not to sell it because it tends to get out of control. Comments?

In a refugium?  How much control do you need?  ;)  Just cut
out what you don't want.  There is always someone that needs
some.  Many in our club share or sell a bag full for $5.

I bought a bag from seaside_treasures  on eBay and I just looked at their
profile and it was 180+ and 0- so I would highly recommend them

Chaeto,cheatomorpha just for the fact it doesn't go sexual and expose the
tank with its result.
