I have yet to see plants that one could put in his reef tank like natural see weed or something what can one plant in his reef tank to make it more alive like fresh water has tons of options what do salt water tanks have that is nice ....

I used to have shaving brush plants in my tank......... till my tangs decided they were dinner!

Sargassum and Halimeada Macros are slightly easier to control than the caulerpas in a display tank. Most plants will overtake a reef tank, be eaten by fish like tangs, or grow too large for tanks.

I love my red mangroves.. granted they are in the fuge not our display but they look great add a nice lagonal look to the sump and the roots make an amazing living space for pods and bristle worms..

we have some maidens hair growing in one of our reef tanks that looks pretty cool..

My girlfriend has some nice kind of metallic purple macro in her tank. It's very slow-growing, and nothing seems to eat it. I'll have to post a pic sometime.

I have some turtle grass and manatee grass in my refugium. However they need a minimum 6" deep sand bed and tang will make short work of them. Very cool though. I would love a display tank with sea grass in it.

I have halimeda growing in my tank. I have to prune it back from time to time. Fish don't usually eat it because it's not very tasty to them.
Here's a picture of it.
