Looking for caulerpa

If anyone has some. Not chaeto.

I have both of the common ones, grape and feather.

Sweetness! Can you spare some? Trade or whatever.

Absolutely! Is it OK if it's 90% caulerpa, 10% cheato or do you want 100% caulerpa? This impacts how much I can collect at the moment.

I can pick the chaeto out no problem

Is caulerpa better than chaeto? Just a preference? Wondering if I should switch up what I have in my fuge. Thanks.

I added a 100 plus gallon refugium with three Radion freshwater fixtures at full daylight strength. Grew chaeto along with 7 or 8 different macros and the chaeto outgrew all the caulerpa. Ended up filling the fuge four times with just chaeto and saw no noticeable difference in nitrate and phosphate levels. So, I’m going to try all caulerpa and see if it makes a difference.
