Scientific name: Bonnemaisoniaceae
Bonnemaisoniaceae is a family of red algae, primarily found in marine environments. Members of this family are known for their distinctive branching patterns and can range in color from deep red to purple. They are often used in reef aquariums for their aesthetic appeal and ability to provide a natural and beneficial habitat for a variety of marine organisms. These algae can also play a role in nutrient export, helping to maintain water quality by absorbing excess nutrients such as nitrates and phosphates.
