Red Grape

[daveverdo]

As I mentioned in an earlier post I just got some red grape (Botryocladia) from reeftopia.com . I placed it in the tank 3 days ago. It has lost and is looseing a lot (but not all) of "grapes".

1) Is this normal? Is this just due to the shock of moving the plant to a new tank? If so, how long may it take to recover?

2) Should I be filtering out the "grapes" or leaving them in the tank?

3) Should I trim back the bare "branches" where the "grapes" have come off?

Thanks,
Dave

This is exactly what happened to mine. Just have patience, and in a few weeks, you will start to see some little buds of grapes. Leave the red "vine" like thing, that's what the grapes will grow off!
