Grape caulerpa

[CU kills]

I recently found a grape caulerpa in my 10 gallon nano. How fast does this stuff grow? Mine has been growing about 2-3 inches a week. My tank paramaters are;

PH: 8.2
Ammonia: 0ppm
Nitrites: 0ppm
Nitrates: 0-5.0ppm
Salinity: 1.0024
Temp range: 78 night, 84 day

That growth rate you are getting is about right. BTW, I would bump your temp up to 80 so you don't get as big a temp swing everyday.

Okay thanks. So far this is my second favorite hitchhiker (feather dusters #1). Does it usually take over a year for it to showup?
