Inventory time:
I figured out what everything was (not the critters, a very odd worm is loose in there) and made a list finally:
Greens:
Acetabularia: it is melting back.
Caulerpa verticillata
C. sertularioides( a wee bit)
C. mexicana(a wee bit)
C prolifera
C. racemosa
C. cupressoides
C. Curpessoides "Tiny"
Batophora oerstedii
Dasycladus vermicularis(aka furry sauages)
Neomeris annulata (cannot find it now)
Ventricaria ventricaria
Valonia sp
Dictyospaeria cavernosa
Codium repens
Codium sp
Cladocephalus luteofuscus
Udotea flabellum
Rhipocephalus phoenix
Penicillus capitatus "Mini Trees"
P. dumetosus
Cymopolia barbata : my favorite green alga
Halimeda copisoa
H. discoidea
H. incraassata
H. monile
Browns:
Dictyota cervicornis
Padina gymnospora
Sargassum sp
Reds:
Halymenia sp.
Ceramium sp.
Laurecia poitei
L. intricata.
L. sp.
Eucheuma isiforme
Jania adherens(looks a lot like coral)
Galaxaura subverticillata
Amphiroa ridida (Looks like coral)
A. tribulus
Neogoniolithon spectabile
N. strictum
And Titanoderma prototypum
Plants:
Syringodium filiforme
Thlassia testudinum
43 plants.
That's a fair number. I'll weed out the less desirable ones later. I've had other species in addition to this.
I'm not certain as to why folks don't keep these plants/macro's except as refugium filter utility plants in marine tanks. They are quite suitable and nice in their own right.
Regards,
Tom Barr
