Algae like a Lillypad??

[PhilipOSU]

Does anyone know what kind of algae looks kind of like a vine with what looks like lillypads growing from it?? I have this stuff growing in my 20G office tank. Any ideas on something that would find this algae appetizing?

Thanks,
Phil

Sounds like Acetabularia aka mermaid's wineglass, not sure what would eat it though.

I think its a caularpa, most of my tangs eat it.

Caulerpa nummularia?
You can try a Foxface

I had been thinking of adding a small bordering on tiny (1 1/2") tang to this tank. it is a 20G that is 20"x20". Obviously, the tang won't be permanent to this tank. Now I need to figure out which type... most likely a yellow maybe a purple though.

any zebrasoma tang should work or foxface/rabbitfish.
