Halimeda questions

[GoneReefing]

Thanks for the information. After googling a little more I found this blurb on dr. foster & smith --> URL

Halimeda may also be called the Money Plant. Calcareous algae deposit limestone (calcium carbonate) in their tissues. When the algae dies, the calcium carbonate is left as sediment in tropical lagoons and reefs.

So as long as I continue to dose and monitor calcium levels I should be ok right? As long as I just left the dead material decompose the calcium in the plant should be released back into the system.

My SPS in general are growing (slowly), but I don't think it as much as a calcium issue as temperature and bulbs as the bulbs are stock t5ho (which I am in the process of ordering some ATI and UVL bulbs) and the temp thing is just that it will fluctuate from 76 to 81, can't seem to keep it constant. I notice the polyps on the sps will go in when it is a higher temp and come out when in the lower range.

I have been still debating on if I should keep this, as its a nice large plant but the cheato is overgrowing and stunting it so that was the reason I asked if I should move it up to the display and if any has came across any issue with doing so.

Thanks for everyones input, keep it coming.
