The Caulerpa Racemosa Grape Caulerpa marine macroalgae is a very popular and a beautiful marine algae species, which often get seen as the origin of Caulerpa racemosa species. It is fast growing and forms ball shaped appendages, therefore it is commonly called Grape Caulerpa. In the planted reef tank we recommend to keep it away from the main rockwork as it will attach itself easily.

Light
Thes Caulerpa Racemosa Grape Caulerpa macroalgae loves the light, as more as you provide as faster it will grow.
Palatable
This macroalgae is often eaten especially by larger herbivore fishes like Tang & Foxface fishes.
Attaching
This macro algae will attach itself to rock etc. and therefore we recommend not to place it too close to your main rock, unlike you like to have it there. It needs some trimming and attention as it is fast growing. Great to keep in the macroalgae sump/refugium.
Caulerpa Case
Some Caulerpa macroalgae species might go sexual, which means that it releases gametes and tissue into the aquarium water. Although this said, we never had in 14 years any problem with this algae species, and it was one of the first macroalgae we got. One thing to avoid this is good light and to remove pale turning parts of it.
Trimming
Whitish parts of Caulerpa Racemosa should be removed as they are decomposing.
Treatment
Like for most marine macroalgae a higher level of Nitrate and Phosphate, in addition to the supplement of Iron, Magnesium and Trace elements will improve the growth of this live algae.
If the macroalgae is not growing as expected a special formulated fertiliser for the marine aquarium can help to improve the growth of the macroalgae. Please find a selection of supplements for the marine aquarium HERE
Placement
This macroalgae can be either placed in the Refugium or in the marine Display Tank where would recommend an enclosed space away from the main reef rock work.
Please note
Our macroalgae are from fish free macro algae tanks, although we use sometimes pictures for demonstration purposes only which will include fishes, seahorses and or corals.
We do our best to quarantine, treat and remove any unwanted hitchhikers, parasites etc from our macro algae but we can not guarantee that the algae are completely free of anything unwanted, not limited to Copepods, Rotifers etc. This is simply because that sometimes eggs, spores, etc can remain viable but not visible and hitchhikers can still stay hidden, especially in dense algae structures, despite our strict quarantine efforts.
We highly recommend nonetheless that you properly quarantine anything new before adding it to your marine tank.
