man, i just chucked a bunch. i made a post asking if anyone wanted any but got nada. if you can't find any...i'll most likely have some chaeto in a few weeks or so. it's generally preferred because it's easy and won't do the whole sexual thang...

:lol: not quite as exciting as that but some macros, caulerpa for instance can undergo a reproduction cycle which will mess up your water quality and is quite nasty apparently. i've never experienced personally...the macro thing that is :mrgreen:

PM sent. Got some different macros growing that do not go sexual (& pollute your tank).
