Algae Question

[Parnold]

I have a small amount of grape caulerpa growing in my tank. Should I remove it right away and is it a good idea to put it in the refugium.

Get rid of the stuff, it can be a pain if allowed to grow. I wouldn't put it in the fuge either.

Get some chaeto.

Caulerpa is one of those macros that just suddenly "goes sexual, asexual, bisexual, or whatever", but it just goes white and spawns out all the crud it's been collecting...it's good tang food if you can give it to anyone..

I can't get it out of my 65, it started as this tiny cute sprig of a nothing and now it's taking over, strangling corals and impossible to pull out more than an inch at a time.

I agree with Emily it does grow out of control. But you know if it growing rapidly is that not an indication of high nutrient enviornments. If it is growing it also taking out nitrates too. It has it uses if you harvest so it doesn't go out of control
