Anyone familiar with this?

I just bought this the other day. My LFS sold it under the name "mermaids hair" but a search on the internet has shown me that there are a lot of different macros called by that same common name. Anyone have this? Is it ok for a 'fuge? It sure looks nice waving in the current.
Thanks for your help.

Try looking up Chlorodesmis.

cfrazee,
Does it grow very fast? Do you have 24/7 lighting?

Thanks,
Kevin

Thanks for the name Kevin, I knew that a member of this forum would have the answer.
cfrazee do you have any hints on how to grow or spread this stuff? I'm having a real hard time getting any chaeto shipped to Canada and would like to use this for nutrient export instead.
Regards,
Chad

I had some in my fugge. It did not make it. I have all kinds of Algae. Turtle grass is not easy to maintain from what I have read. My LFS has had no luck in getting it to grow.
