Caulerpa

[bergshawn]

Anyone locally have any experience with Caulerpa or any other type of MacroAlgae in their display tank? Was thinking about adding some to control nitrates and improve the appearance of my tank. Have done some research but can't seem to determine what is the best type of Macro to add that will not go crazy taking of my tank.

If it doesn't "go crazy" in your tank, then it's not going to help control your nitrates. ;)

Really? So I would have to let it pretty much take over the whole tank to control nitrates?

[gregt]

No, but IMO, it will be a headache to keep it trimmed back, yet have enough growing to make much of a difference...

why not put caulerpa in a refugium
