Default Plant ID, And What will eat it?

This sucking up iodine apply to red variety only or maybe to green one, too?
Cannot find the info about the color varietes...

_Caualerpa racemosa_ is a better choice or one of the _Chaetomorpha sp._. _C. racmosa_
dose not go sexually as much as other Caulerpa and going sexually is not a good thing.

Here is some info on _Gracilaria verrucosa _. One problem with this algae is that is sucks
up allot of Iodine, which is probably more a good thing than a bad thing. This also a
great food and many of the food reefers use have/buy has this in it or want it growing in
their tanks
