Hello friends, here's a discussion about keeping Caulerpa in a reef tank and whether it's "Dangerous" to do this. If you enjoyed this video please leave a like and comment below!
I am a huge fan of caulerpa prolifera. Bought some, waiting for shipping, put it in my tank, next morning it was gone. So bummed as you can imagine. I know your video is a couple years old, but was wondering if you might know if any of my fish would eat this stuff or if I could try again. It was not in my filter or anywhere I could find in my 40 gallon tank so I'm assuming it was eaten??? I have a low stock including: 2 clowns, watchman goby, tail spot blenny, fire fish, 2 PJ cardinals, 2 bengai cardinals, and 2 cleaner shrimp. I would really like to try again, but if the fish are going to eat this, it is a pretty expensive snack.
I despise grape caulerpa.. got into my display and is very hard to get rid of.. it roots itself into small crevices of rock, grows under the sand and holds a TON of detritus. Was strangling corals and anemones. If you want it in your display then your good but keep an eye on it.

You can do a series of videos on macroalgae pruning ?
You can do a series of videos about how to place macroalgae for aquascape?
Thanks man 😉.
Thanks for the idea!
@@EverydayAquarist 😉.
i am learning a lot about from you. Really interesting.
will the filter feeders like clams and feather duster worms enjoy the Caulerpa spores?
I've only ever used grape caluarpa. Never had an issue with it. I have see some of it go white sometimes. Now I know what's going on . Thanks.
Great video mate, could have timed this video more perfectly really. Great information and advice. 👊
Glad you enjoyed it
I love your video man 😍.
I appreciate it!
Can i perhaps use plant grower full spectrum aquascaping led light in growing this type of macroalgae? “Caulerpa”
Will tangs eat prolifera? I would like to get some, but have a few tangs in my tank
Yes but ctenocheatus tangs wont
@@EverydayAquarist cool! Thanks! So all bristletooth are good to go?

Do you plant ulva in substrate or just let it float around in the tank till it finds a way to self seed?
Let it float
Thank you for this video! Very informative!
What types of algae you have in your's tanks ? Thanks and beautiful acuariums
Thank you, I have a video going through my algaes on my channel
Very interesting insight...
What pH and dH are required for Caulerpa lentillifer (sea grapes) ?
My feather Caulerpa has reproduced by going “sexual” in my 120. I have small little sprouts in a lot of base rock that was put in as dead rock.
Wow that's cool
@@EverydayAquarist I wish there was a way to post pics in the comments
Thanks for sharing 💚💙
You're welcome
So once it goes sexual is that part of the plant dead? Do you remove it? Or do you just leave it and it recovers.
Remove it as it will melt and cloud up your tank, its dead
If my coulerpa already turn sexual and become white. Is it consider dead and i need to remove it or it will turn green again ?
Remove it
Cute cardinal
Can I eat it?
Do sea hares it it

Did you know caulerpa is actually a Giant Cell
It's a cool fact isn't it!
Pleasr no more Honey-esque animal character. 🐝
I like it
World's largest single cell!
Great video thanks for sharing
