Darn it, I typed in the post hours ago and missed out on pressing submit before some work emergency popped up. I even had to stop MSN'ing for a bit, how traumatic !!

Anyhow yes that's the stuff I was thinking of. I would love to be able to try some of that ..

This is what I had typed in before the real world so inconsiderably showed up ...

Seems what is called "Mermaid's cup" is Udotea cyathiformis but what I was specifically thinking of is Acetabularia calyculus.

I had some Neomeris annulata, Caterpillar Weed, show up voluntarily in one of my tanks for a while ... unfortunately I don't seem to have any, not that I know of anyhow, any longer ... that was kinda neat too..

A buddy of mine has a turbo snail that has two little stalks of that caterpillar weed growing on his shell. It looks pretty funny. We called it shrek.
