Hi,
I posted this in the WTB/TRADE section but, I don't know if it would be appropriate here as well. Hi,
I am looking for anyone who has some extra calupera or other macroalgae. I am trying to add more to my fuge to compete with what is left of my hair algae. Anyone in SA preferably. I know it will take a while to battle but, I need to have a long range plan. Anyone?

george, sure you don't want some chaematophora instead? none of the nasty side effects of caulerpa.

Chaetomorpha is good stuff, but C. prolifera isn't so bad, I don't even thinks its illegal yet...

It usually doesn't climb onto your rocks making it impossible to remove. But it grows a little slow for a refugium.
