Common name: Caulerpa

Caulerpaceae is a family of green algae, predominantly found in marine environments. Members of this family, such as the well-known genus Caulerpa, are popular in the reefkeeping hobby for their unique shapes and ability to absorb nutrients, thus reducing nitrates and phosphates in the aquarium. They exhibit a range of forms from feathery to grape-like structures, adding aesthetic diversity to the tank. However, they can grow rapidly and may require regular pruning to prevent them from overrunning other inhabitants.
