Turbinaria macroalgae

[Red Firefish]

Hi everyone. Has anybody here kept Turbinaria ornata, and possibly know where I can get some? I've seen it occasionally on live rock, but it doesn't seem to ever stay viable. I would be able to trade blue Ochtodes sp. or Caulerpa peltata. I live in AZ. Thanks.

i've seen em growing on tonga branch rocks occassionally. check w/ your LFS to see if they have any in stock..

Indeed. I have always been able to find what I need locally. This particular algae has proven elusive, but may stay that way. I've surfed the plant supplier sites in the sticky at the top of this forum, but haven't found it. I guess live rock's still my best bet. Thanks very much for the advice!

from my experience.. they don't import it on liverocks. you have to find it as a hitchhiker and grow it out. hth
