Wanted: Grape caulerpa

[quan325i]

Does anyone have some to spare?

Is there a particular reason you are looking for this type. Eperiment maybe??? It's pretty much the most unsuitable aquarium species.

More importantly illegal to own, trade, sell, import, and export out of California.

I think those two summed it up pretty well....
Here's just one instance of it taking over a tank also...

I'm trying to keep my algae down. I used to have hair caulerpa (chaeto?) but they grow so fast.

QN

I have no idea how but a while ago it got into my tank... I can't even find any now

The Chaeto growing is good thing and sign that it's using the harmful nutrients from the water. You trim back once a month or so and call it good... It's cut down on all of my hair algae.

I have tons over in Marin County if you make it over here. My Tangs love the stuff. I have been growing it out and just feeding it to them.
