About this item

Green Sea Lettuce Ulva Macroalgae

Green Sea Lettuce (Ulva spp.) macroalgae is a bright green sheet-forming macroalgae widely known for its fast growth and exceptional nutrient uptake in marine aquariums. Its thin, translucent blades resemble lettuce leaves, giving the algae its distinctive and recognizable appearance.

Ulva grows as soft leafy sheets that can attach lightly to rock, substrate, or tumble freely in refugiums. These broad blades efficiently absorb nitrate and phosphate while also providing natural grazing material for herbivorous fish and invertebrates, making it both functional and visually appealing.

Available Options

Golf Ball Size (1.5")

Starter portion ideal for refugiums or macroalgae displays. Several small leafy Ulva blades. Good starting amount for nutrient export or herbivore grazing.

Baseball Size (3")

Large starter mass for established refugiums. Multiple broad leafy blades. Excellent for strong nutrient export and natural herbivore food.

Water Flow Moderate
Placement Refugium, sump, or display
Care Level Easy
Growth Rate Very Fast
Nutrient Uptake Very High

Special Considerations

Ulva grows as thin leafy blades that can float, tumble, or loosely attach to surfaces. It thrives in nutrient-rich systems and benefits from moderate water movement to keep the blades clean and healthy. Regular harvesting encourages continued rapid growth and sustained nutrient export.

🌱 Propagation

Green Sea Lettuce Ulva propagates through rapid growth and natural fragmentation:

  • Blades grow quickly under strong lighting and nutrient availability
  • Pieces can be divided and placed elsewhere in the aquarium
  • Small fragments readily develop into new macroalgae blades
