Codium Macroalgae (Codium sp.)

Codium is a highly sought-after ornamental macroalgae that brings both elegance and function to reef aquariums. Known for its thick, velvety, dark green branches, Codium grows in a sculptural, tree-like form that adds depth, structure, and a natural aesthetic to any marine display.

Its sturdy growth habit makes it a hardy and low-maintenance choice for aquarists, while its branching fronds provide valuable habitat for pods, snails, and small invertebrates. In addition to its beauty, Codium helps with nutrient export, absorbing excess nitrates and phosphates to support a healthier, more balanced reef system.

Key benefits include:

  • Distinctive deep green, velvet-textured branches for aquascaping.
  • Provides microhabitat and grazing surfaces for beneficial critters.
  • Slower-growing and easy to manage compared to faster-spreading macroalgae.
  • Suitable for both display tanks and refugiums.

With its unique appearance and functional role, Codium Macroalgae is an excellent addition for reef keepers looking to enhance biodiversity while elevating the natural look of their aquarium.

Acclimation

Temperature Match

Float the sealed bag containing the coral in your tank for 15-20 minutes. This allows the coral to gradually reach the same temperature as your aquarium, minimizing temperature-related stress.

Prepare and Dip Coral

To ensure the health and safety of your new coral, prepare a dip solution using tank water and a coral dip product, following the dip’s instructions for dosage and timing. This precautionary dip helps protect your tank by eliminating any potential hitchhikers. Keep an eye on the coral during the process to confirm it’s responding well.

Rinse in Tank Water

After the dip, rinse the coral thoroughly in a separate container filled with clean tank water. This step removes any residual dip solution, preventing it from entering your display tank and ensuring the coral is safe to be introduced.

Introduce Coral

Carefully position the coral in your tank, ideally on a rock or suitable location based on the coral’s needs. Make sure the placement allows proper flow and lighting according to the coral species. Monitor the coral for the next few hours to ensure it adjusts well.
