Does anything eat caulerpa?
Hi,
I have caulerpa growing in my main display and it's driving me nuts. I've tried manually removing it, but it grows back in no time. I skim heavily and only feed 2 times a day. I have Anthias and I need to feed a little more than 1 time a day. Any suggestions? Would renting a tang work? =( I don't know what else to do. Please let me know. TY

I can rent you my tangs. Eats everything, Grape, feather, cheato and codium. I love the looks of this stuff in my main tank but just can keep it cause of him
How about you just keeping ripping it out and send it to me

I actually grow it in my sump to give my tangs (Naso, Purple and Kole) and snack. If it wasn't down there, it would be gone. So borrow a friend's tang.

Here's the kind I have. This was the beginning. Wish I could have got control of it then. I can't just pull it out. Every time I do that, it grows more. =/ I'm at my wits end with this stuff. I will try to take a better picture tomorrow. I think you will all understand my pain! =( I think it may be time to change my RODI and Carbon filters. Others recommend I buy a small fox face, keep him for a year then sell him if I can't upgrade by then. I don't know what to do. I don't know much about them. Porkchop, sure I'll give you some. I've got tons to go around. Back it would be nice to grow in my sump then feed to my tangs in the future. If I ever get a tank big enough for tangs. =/

These feed solely on caulerpa, Oxynoe olivacea. I've been looking for feather caulerpa at the beach lately, I always find these on it, I'll let you know if I find anymore. It may or may not like your kind, but I imagine it'll take what it can to survive.
