flashardy Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Someone stop me this, this is the last chance I am going to buy some Caulerpa Prolifera, That is the stoping part, the cost is. It is going to cost me 35 for 1 lb. If Anybody has anything close to 1 lb sell it to me. Going to buy in exact 3hrs hurry and E-MAIL me! hardyflash@comcast.net Link to comment
phergus_25 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 dont buy caulerpa buy some cheto, people sell it on here for like 10 shipped Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Don't buy it. It stinks and it'll nearly always die off. Look around the classifieds here for it for MUCH cheaper. You can also get Chaeto, as phergus suggested, which is much better. Link to comment
flashardy Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 Have already, have probably 3-4 lbs of that crap. I want the other stuff Or Red G. I also have Mangroves at 16" tall and grow. Every one month they grow 3". Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 So why waste $35 on some ugly, smelly prolifera? I mean, if you WANT to, I guess do it. Link to comment
flashardy Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 See I dont want to I have looked everywhere for this stuff and that is the cheapest I have found it for, 1lb that is. Everybody else wants 40 and more 2nd day the 35 will ship out overnight. That is your opinion that it is ulgy I like it will add color in the tank(refug that is) Not in the main tank. Link to comment
flashardy Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 well going to get right now thought about it only going to get 1/2 just in case ok ppl. Also going to get more anemones for the tank, and coral maybe. I will keep you up dated to tell you if The plant is a pain in the ass or whatever I think about it, It will be my first time having it so that is about it. Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Half-portion is a good idea. It does smell, and it will yellow your water. Chaeto is better, and since it's in the fuge, who cares if it's ugly? (Or whatever you think of "that crap"...) Link to comment
flashardy Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 Did not buy. Just watched a show On channel 10 I think NOVA, well anyways that changed my mined. I bought 1lb of red g. Thanks for the mind changing. Link to comment

Caulerpa has been a good macro for me, as well as, chaeto. Link to comment
