Any Advice on caring for this stuff. I added it to my tank this weekend and like it. The fish don`t seem to eat it. Are there any care instructions or things I should know about this plant? My shrimp love it as a hiding place...
 
what size tank? Some caluerpa and macro can take over a tank if you don't prune it so keep a close eye on it... What Bear asked???
 
I`m not to sure what type it is... It`s bright green and has what looks like little bubbles in it. It`s not a leafy type seeweed , rather it`s the thick stringy, bubbled type you find on the beach washed up...

I can`t post pics because my camera is busted. sorry
 
It sounds like Grape Calerpa. I keep it in the fuge. If you dont have a fish to eat any of it , it will grow out of control. Tangs will take care of it. Dont be like me and have 3 tangs or you will not be able to keep any of it in your tank. Have a good day.
