Grape Caulerpa control
 

Hi everyone, I was looking for suggestions for a fish or invert to help keep grape caulerpa down. Thank you in advance for your help. :biggrin:

Most rabbitfish = grape algae lawnmower.

I'm partial to the blue lined myself.

Bump.

My naso tang LOVES grape cal. I pull it from my refuge to let him feast on it. Not a sign of it in the main though...

I have a golden spotted rabbit that started to mow it all down within minutes of entering the tank...I had a large problem that is now GONE! So are all the other nuisance algaes since I added this fish. It has a great personality too!

Regal tangs (otherwise known as blue tangs pretty much any tangs for that matter.

If it is for a 29g tank you are limited in getting a fish that would control it. As has been said - most tangs love this stuff but your tank is too small. You might try a rabbit fish but again you are pushing it as far as tank size goes.
I have heard of people controlling it manually by taking each rock out and scubbing it with a stiff brush and pulling any signs of it out with tweezers - and then repeating as required.
Grape calurpa is evil IMO.

Evil is an understatement.:biggrin:
