What happens to your main tank when the caulerpa goes sexual and what did you do about it?

I run my fuge with 24hr lighting and I haven't had any problems, but my fuge has only been up since February. I only have C. racemosa (grape) in mine because it smothers out the other algaes that I have put in there.

In my case the water got cloudy for a day or so followed about a week later by cyano (mainly in low flow areas of sump) followed about a month later by hair algae (in overflows and sump).

If marine photosyntheisis is the same as above water photo.  The dark reaction to photosynthesis is not a "dark" reaction (meaning is doesn't need to be dark).  it just doesn't need light to work.  They call it dark because the side that requires light is called the light stage.  24/7 Lighting works great on plants does anyone have any evidence of it releasing toxic chemicals?  cpearce keep up the good work.  Experimentation is the key.

No, not that I would blame on the algae.
