Odd macro

[MimicTang]

I tried for a picture but I didn't have much success. It's got a root structure and instead of leafs it appears to have horizontal green saucers

My guess from that description is that it's in the Caulerpa racemosa complex but a picture would be very helpful.

 

[MimicTang]

yup I think that might be it too

Or perhaps mermaid's wine glass, just as a shot in the dark. Acetabularia genus usually. Try the Macroalgae Slideshow.. there's a link in the "How to Help Us Help You Identify Algae" stickie at the top of this forum.
