Dictyospaeria cavernosa

Cladocephalus luteofuscus

Reds:

Ceramium sp.
Laurecia poitei
L. intricata.
L. sp.
Eucheuma isiforme

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.

"Cymopolia barbata : my favorite green alga"
Can you give the common name and description, or links, about of this one?
 
I doubt there are many common names for many of these.
I am unaware of any common name for this plant.
I'll see about some links for it.
