sure,
This is how I understand it ...someone might correct me afterwards...
These algae are asexual and from time to time swill sporulate releasing
gametes (spores) into the system that can disturb/injure some corals as well as degrade the visibility in the main tank.
I've also read that Caulerpa brachypus (the miniature version) - is so small that the effects are minimized.
cheers.
