Macro Algae for human consumption?

Sweet! What does it taste like, if you can describe it.

[el fabuloso]

A salty, sour, pickled taste. Although I think that was mostly due to the seasoning than anything. It's mostly about texture which is very similar to bean sprouts.

Interesting. I will try some, if I ever get the chance!

[Jacobnano]

You could always scrape the cyano off your glass (if you have any) and eat that. . I'd be too freaked out about getting any bacterial infections, or fish TB or something crazy for eating anything out of my tank. I've heard of ppl getting sick from accidentally swallowing skimmate... I'd stick to store bought foods if I were you.

 

 

oh agreed, i wouldn't eat anything out of my tank. not sure why not, but I still wouldn't. I would probably get it from the sea, but I probably wouldn't even get it.

tasted like normal ogo...

Just a tiny bit though

Interesting. Is chaeto edible? Instead of taking it out and throwing it away, we could could serve it up as a delicacy.

"What's this? Sphagetti?"

"Oh yeah, kind of, it's like Italian. Called chaeto."

 

And yes, I am aware how old this thread is.
