So today, after boiling some wakame seaweed for a few minutes, I noticed these white hair like structures on the seaweed--They are almost like leeches, since one end of the hair is attached to the seaweed, while the rest can move freely based on the flow of water around it.
It is quite a sight and I definitely lost my appetite... Anyone have any idea what this is?
i eat a lot of seaweed and i was wondering if it’s healthy to eat that much (3 or 4 packs a day) because at this point i may be addicted
Two years ago I read the book Seaweed: A global history and made this song.

I've been reading about Irish Sea Moss lately and live in Nova Scotia, so I went to the beach today to see what I could find. Grabbed a few samples but I'm not totally sure how to tell what is what just yet.
Thanks!
It's a pink flower looking thing growing on seaweed which is growing on a pontoon and excuse the language, kind of looks like a wrinkly ballsack. I know nothing about things that grow/ live in the sea but last I was aware seaweed didn't grow flowers... I'm curious. Also if it helps anyone who might have some sort of idea, this is in New Zealand
Hey all, I am new to the hobby and would like some pointers. I am interested in a project and trying to spore and grow wild seaweed in a tank at home. Mainly ulva species. I am not sure what sort of equipment I would need.
The list I have right now consists of:
-tank
-aerator
-chiller/temp control
-lighting
If anyone has any experience with seaweeds I would love to have some advice on a basic setup as I am pretty new to aquaculture.
Any guides or literature would be a great help too! Thanks all
I was wondering if it's possible to refry seaweed chips? I kinda like them as they are, but the glossy taste and lack of crisp/crunchiness is unfortunate. I'd also like more salt. I was wondering if you guys think it would work to put them in the oven like I do with making baked potato chips, adding some olive oil and salt. I would try it before asking but I ate them all.
I got my hands on some really healthy and fresh ulva. I have dried it to use later. Can anyone give me a recipe on how to use it. Is it possible to make Nori sheets from it at home?
Hey everyone, I’m new to this community but I was wondering how I would go about purchasing kelp to start growing my own kelp at home. I’ve done all of the other research on how to grow it, etc. but I simply can’t find somewhere to buy kelp that I can introduce to my aquatic environment to grow at home. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Do you know of any organization which focuses on underwater robots to farm algae, mussels, etc...?
hey,new here,nice to meet you.
i just wanted to know. lets say you have a 100 hectare big seaweed farm, how many farmers would you need to work there?
if they have boats, equipment and the other stuff. imagine average worker with average equipment. just the farming up to harvesting.
processing and the later steps excluded.
need this for a story idea. thanks in advance.
I recently ordered jarred sea moss gel from Amazon and did not put it in the refrigerator right away It has been unopened in a styrofoam container and when I open the jar and read the temperature it says it was at 67° F If it is unopened is it still safe to use?
