Unknown Plant


Hello all. Newbie question time. I wish I could get a picture to come out but it is just so little and my camera is auto focus. When I have the 260w of PC lighting on you can se two small green growth. Its about an 1/8 inch long shaped like a finger and glows green in the light. I mean glows bright enough to get your attention. Any ideas I have been looking at the forums for 2 days and have not seen anything.

Thanks in advance

A shot in the dark; but does it look anything like this?



I noticed this just starting to grow in my tank, I'm pretty sure it's halimeda.

That is correct I think is it white in the new growths and pale in the am when the lights have been out and then come on.

No not unless it changes shape when it grows out. Its a single growth about the diameter of a pencil lead. Slightly flatened out with a rounded type. Thanks for the pic I have some that on the lr as well
