Jun 13, 2011 · Caulerpa made its way from my fuge to the DT and has gained a foothold in the rockwork. I can't get at all of it for manual removal, and the rockwork is bonded together into a 50-60 pound mass that's not coming out. I'm looking for suggestions of fish that have a …

Jan 31, 2024 · i've read many success stories on the caulerpa. apparently it is more efficient than chaeto (in terms of growing and nutrient export) but can definitely go "asexual" and spread throughout your tank. i have no personal experience with this and have only ever used chaeto. if i had experience with shipping i would definitely send over some to you. i usually pull out about a 1lb size chunk every ...

May 20, 2020 · People might shy away from Caulerpa since it has a higher likelihood of invading your display tank. So far it hasn't happened to me but I can see how it might happen.

Nov 23, 2015 · Any one know the difference between these two varieties of grape caulerpa? I see most people using racemosa but when I look at pictures my stuff looks like lentillifera.

Aug 29, 2017 · Caulerpa is more efficient than chaeto and will outcompete it, but was a long term nightmare until I got a foxface. Even taking down the tank and scrubbing every rock and surface did not solve it as it grew back from tiny bits in crevices.

Jul 26, 2023 · Technically, my 'grape' caulerpa doesn't actually appear to be the literal 'sea grape' type. I got mine from Reef Cleaners, which is actually C. cupressoides, var. lycopodium. Reef Cleaners sells it as Grape Caulerpa, but it is a completely different species called Cactus Tree Caulerpa. I had forgotten about that until I read back on the RC page.

May 12, 2019 · I have some caulerpa mexicana that is on a rock and it’s beautiful. I have to pull the rock out every couple of weeks and “weed” it. Every once in a while a fern will float off and try to start some place else, but I “pluck it out”.

Jun 4, 2020 · So my tank is 80 gallons and I’m fairly new to the hobby. I mistakenly got caulerpa cause I wanted live plants and long story short the caulerpa went sexual turning my tank greenish yellow. Tank temp 78 Nitrates low - (I have api test strips so no exact numbers) Nitrites low salinity 1.022 Ammonia spiked today at 1 which is due to the ...

Nov 5, 2021 · So I have a pretty big infestation of caulerpa in my DT, the question is how do I get rid of it? It grows very fast and I prune weekly but to what end… I have a sump / refugium that runs opposite of DT however it is still growing in DT. I have emerald crabs / …
