Monkey Finger

Monkey Finger Ogo Species Information
Gracilaria salicornia occurs widely across the tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans. It is found mainly in very shallow waters (e.g. tidepools and reef flats). It does not seem to prefer powerful water currents and wave action. Only rarely does this seaweed occur in the subtidal zone. It also requires slightly more intense light than most other members of its genus.

Benefits of Aquacultured Monkey Finger Ogo
Aquacultured monkey finger ogo plants provide a huge advantage over wild-harvested specimens. For instance, if cultivated in captive conditions, they are better adapted to living in an aquarium. They are also less likely to harbor unwanted hitchhikers. Moreover, aquacultured specimens are better able to handle shipping stress. Most noteworthy, by purchasing captive-bred livestock you support the aquaculture of marine organisms and help to make our hobby more sustainable!
