    Bonus?

    Today I was digging around in my sump. Its where I stage my new corals before putting them into the main. When I placed the coral in the main, I had a little piece of feather caulepra(sp) stuck to my arm and it went into my display. My tang went nuts, nearly eating it straight off my arm. He doesn't really seem to go for the nori I supply, so I'm thinking that its awesome that I can supply him some veggies that I need to prune anyway. Any harm in him eating this stuff?

    No harm at all, in fact the greens are beneficial. The only potential problem is that the tang doesn't eat it and the Caulerpa lands in the displays and starts to grow...out of hand.

    I really can't see the growth getting out of hand. He's a machine.

    My FoxFace loves Grape Culpera. I put it in the main all the time, when I prune from the fuge. It has never had a chance to get out of control, he eats it too fast.

    If your tang likes it, it won't get a foothold in your tank, they are constant foragers.
    When I was in high school, I got in trouble with my girlfriend's Dad. He said, " I want my daughter back by 8:15." I said, "The middle of August? Cool!"
