I believe the first pic is Halymenia (sp?) algae. Pops up in my tank from time to time. Pretty stuff and easy to control with manual pruning. Tangs love it.

That is definitly one of the coolest looking hitchhikers Ive seen in quite some time. Is baicly like water filled vessicals? Or is it like a macro algae? Pretty neat whatever it is. Any tangs in the tank??

Thats actually one of the harder to keep macro algaes around... so good going. I try to keep it in my refugium, but it cant even compete with chaeto or the 'tang heaven' algae in there. It is 'tang candy' though...

I've had it in my nano for the last few months, and I think it is holding strong. You can see it in these pictures.
