Yeah, fair enough, I'll just never put it in my DT again lol

I keep Halimeda in my display along with Purple and Regal Tangs and a Foxface. Don't think they're eating it, but if they are can't be very much as I need to prune every once and while.

good to hear!
thanks!

probably need to wait for a while

Fellow reefers often have plenty to give away since much of it needs pruning from time to time, especially chaetomorpha. Keep an eye on the forums or even post a wanted thread and I'm sure someone in your area will accommodate you.

I have some feather caulerpa if you want some. I have had it for over a year and has not gone sexual yet, touch wood. I does not hold onto the rocks as bad as some others I have had.
Here is a link to some various types of macro algae, feather is about #9
