Hmm... sounds like it may be a feather caulerpa....
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/caulerpaalg.htm There's more stuff than you wanted to know about caulerpa on this page and the links on it. Caulerpa is generally a good macro for a refugium.

The only problem with caulerpa is that it will go sexual on you, and release some bad stuff into your tank. Cheato is the way to go!!!

You may have a point there, at least that's what the ecosystem method has stated.

I pretty much had no choice but to go with caulerpa. I would rather use chaeto, but with my 10lb's of @#$% in a 5lb bag set up, I have to use caulerpa. |
