I was doing a search on E bay and came across an E bay auction for" Assorted Macro Algae and Snails" and the seller had a note in the auction stating "Will not ship any species of Caulerpa to California" any one have any knowledge of caulerpa being illegal in California?
I have sent the seller several E mails but no respond from him .

Yes, caulpera is not allowed to enter california for fear of contaminating natural habitats. California also bans ferrets (for more dubious reasons).

Go with cheato!

yeah you don't want caulpera - it's bad stuff. It can release toxins at times. Use cheato..
