The Caulerpa mexicana (Caulerpa sp.) belongs to the family named Caulerpaceae. Typically reaching a max size of about 11.9 inches in length, the Caulerpa mexicana is passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out or do best in the rock structures. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is good and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Caulerpa sp. in general should have standard (3 watts/gallon) light to thrive. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.4, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include a well established aquarium, high water quality, and a fluctuating water current.
