Well it appears that it does this right before releasing spores..... It is dead and is about to release in to the water table :(

Would I be crazy to let a little bit go to see if the spores would grow into new plants :D lol

2 days and hasnt gone sexual yet O_O

 

it doesn;t really matter if you let it go sexual, they don't release too many nutrients and it's a cool, easily manageable macro.

My caulerpa prolifera went sexual....that was a different story -_-

Well it seems that a couple new halimeda plants are now growing on my poor hydroid infested ceriths shell lol, it is becoming a walking forest.

 

Here is the pic, it is not green bubble as they are flat and shaped like the halimeda plant :D
