Macro algae / live plants

I want to add this to my 90 gal display tank both for reducing nitrates as well as creating a natural look. I had a small amount of caulerpa prolifera in the 55 and liked the way it looked. It was also a great spot for the pods to hang out. I have a regal tang and he picked at the caulerpa on occassion but didn't bother it much.

Got a few questions:

1. Online resource for buying - who has the best selection?

2. Do plants need to be quarantined?

3. Are there any that I need to avoid?

4. Any suggestions for plants that the tang will not be interested in?

5. Any adverse effects to the tank that I should know about?

I'm sure there are more things to consider and I'm hoping that others will chime in on this subject. Any advice is welcome!
