Hi..
[...C. prolifera...] Does anybody know where I can find some of this? I guess - sorry I know - in the Mediterranean Sea..! ;-) I found some on ebay, but it was XXL 15 inch variety which seems too big to me. Hmm.., caulerpas are _green_ algae but no tang..! Does it make good tang food? No.., see above-mentioned. Tried "sushi suplies"..? :-) -- cu Marco |

I thgink you mean Caulerpa taxifolia (feather caulerpa) which is the invasive crap that has sprung up all over the Mediterranean. I found some on ebay, but it was XXL 15 inch variety which seems too big to me. Hmm.., caulerpas are _green_ algae but no tang..! Does it make good tang food? My yellow tang particularly seems to like Caulerpa racemosa... He also eats taxifolia when I give it to him, but if he has both, he favors the recemosa. I've Never put prolifera in my tank, but I bet he'd eat it. No.., see above-mentioned. Tried "sushi suplies"..? :-) Yah. Nori works wuite well as tang food. (my ocellaris eat it too...) |

(sorry) You are supposed to capitalize the genus, but not the species. It's "Caulerpa prolifera", not "Caulerpa Prolifera" |
