I need to send a picture to someone of a plant growing in my 100 gal. Tank. The tank is 2 years old and doing very good. But I recently changed my lighting and different types of growth are now occuring. I need to know if this plant is good or BAD! Thanx Don

Its a macro algae called Caulerpa. Its not really a bad thing, but it does root to anything, including corals. It also grows rather fast under the right conditions, and will go sexual if it is not pruned on a regular basis.

Its a calcium based algae that doesnt really do anything except use up calcium and look good. I dont have my algae book unpacked from the move yet or I could give you a definate ID on it. Its fairly common on Fiji live rock though.


Maybe Ferretfish will pop in tomorrow and be able to look it up in her reef inverts book. If not then I will go digging through boxes and get an ID for you.
