Steve, to be fair, I don't think you'd have that problem if you bought "new" rock. Buying from an existing setup increases the chance of problem algae because the rocks have been in nutrient rich water AND the owner may have added some pretty green leafy stuff at some point. I'm not sure I've heard of caulerpa problems on fresh rock.
