[i got crabs]

exactly what i said. I cnat find any caulerpa at my lps and would apreciate it if any1 new of a good inexpensive online retailer. also suggestions on how much and basic care would also b apreciated.

no one knows where to get caulerpa? would any 1 want to sell me some cut off cheap? i did find a few online retailers but there flat shipping rate is more than the cost of the plant.

Do you have a local reef club or the like? We usually give it away here...

thanu all for the advice. actually this lfs in union just got some in and they sold it to me for about 8$ a lb. he said all i have to do is plant it and keep the light on it for about 12 hrs. is this correct? any other sugestions. and no i dont belong to any reef clubs but if ant 1 wants to give anything away to me for free ill give u all hugs!!!

12-14 hours of good light exposure will give you a lot of growth in short order!!! Be sure to trim it back from time to time ...
