issues with Caulerpa

cowdust9 · 03/30/2012, 10:12 AM

hello,

Right now i have two sumps and have no issues growing Caulerpa Rasmosa, but if i try to grow Large grape Caulerpa (not sure on the names) it seems to die off all the bulbs go away in a day or two and that's it and does not come back

I don't seem to have any other issues with other macro's even red macro's grow and i always had issues with those in the past

any idea's?

Thank you,

Give it some time to establish it will do that to start with but once it recovers it will take off.

The rasmosa is likely out competing the grape caulerpa for essential nutrients.
