Wow, no one replied sorry about that,
TO PLANT!! Always my opinion.
try,
feather caulerpa,very pretty
live aquaria has some nice looking "kelp" on a rock and under : Live Foods they have some that are probabley pretty small but good if you want pops of color.
Live Foods for Feeding Aquarium Fish, Inverts & Corals: Mammilarus Gracillaria Algae, Gracilaria mammillarus Really like the color of this one.
If you do some research you can find nice places, some stuff is not always available though.
there is a thread on reef central that has some nice links but reef central is down for construction. As soon as it is back up ill reply again with the link.

Sounds good. I have always loved magroves and caulerpa but caulerpa can go sexual so I TRY to stay away from it but.....
I like gracilairia it can be very pretty. Also a warining if you are dosing a supplement in that will help the plants grow usually its just a bunch of nutrients and other things that will rack up the nitrates that the plants will eat. Alot of times this means that there is going to be ALOT of algea growth (nusiance kind) and you should make sure you keep an eye on it and haave pretty decent clean up crew.
