Wait till you see the articles I have coming for Red, Green and other Freshwater algae.
Lots of info.
I had to cut myself off
Greg should have the Red algae article up sometime soon.
I still could use some more editing and additions, I never got to take the micrographs I wanted.
I have little access to all the different species of red algae and can only effective culture 2-3 species. I will need to run out to various LFS to get samples for the various species of BBA.
Keys for FW algae species are hard to locate and using them takes even more skill. I have the scope set up and nice digital camera now so hopefully I'll add some more to it later.
But for many folks, Dusko's article is super. If you need more, the newsletters will, address those deeper questions and methods.
Regards,
