Species of
Cladophora, Enteromorpha, Chaetomorpha, and Gracilaria are used to supplement or substitute for fish food for cultured herbivorous fish.
The genus
Cladophora (Ulvophyceae, Clorophyta) is one of the most important of the attached benthic algae as they tend to alter the conditions of the microhabitats they live into by modifying current, blocking sunlight, absorbing dissolved oxygen, collecting detritus and providing refuge for invertebrates (Dodds, 1991; Fernandez & Reid, 2012).
En general, se identificaron microorganismos bioindicadores de la calidad de agua, como algas verdes:
Cladophora sericea, Brasiliensis scenedesmus, Scenedesmus acuminatus, Scenedesmus acuatus, Scenedesmus ellipsoideus, Scenedesmus ecornis, Cosmarium sp, Nitzschia palea, Nitzschia linearis, Synedra ulna, Navicula sp, Navicula cryptocephala, Nitzschia rostellata; protozoarios como: Acinetas, Suctoria, Euplotes patella, Coleps sp, Paramecium caudatum, Vorticella convalaria, Zoothamnium sp; gran poblacion de rotiferos como: Euchlanis dilatata, Philodina roseola, pero poca presencia de Anabaena sp.
Large filamentous green algae
Cladophora (dominant), Spirogyra, Mougeotia, Ulothrix, Chaetophora, Zygnema, etc.
In some bays, excess nitrogen has also led to increases in biomasses of the seaweeds
Cladophora spp., Gracilaria spp.
For example, [q.sub.m] of 2.38 mg/g was reported for selenate removal using [Fe.sub.3][O.sub.4] [78], 26.3 mg/g using FeOOH [77, 79], 29.0 mg/g using Fe-Mn hydrous oxide [24], and 74.9 mg/g Se(IV) using green alga
Cladophora hutchinsia [80].
