the closer I get the more blurry it becomes. it is vine-like...you can see the vine a little bit going out of the upper part. when i get home from work i can try to get a closer picture. my first thought was grape caulerpa, but it doesn't have any "grapes", just little round leaves.

I looked up some pictures of the mermaids cup and the leaves/cups look similar, but the mermaid cup looks to me like a colony of individual stalks. What I have is multiple leaves coming off of a single vine.
Are there multiple flavors of the mermaids cup? one of which might be a vine...

At the moment I am going with Caulerpa nummularia. I will see if I can get a better pic in the morning when the lights come back on.

Cajonez, closer pictures are always more helpful in getting the best possible ID on stuff. Thanx for getting the closeup.
Now send some to our friend Renee (Cranberry)!

I could absolutely send a piece to cranberry, if she would like some. I'm not sure how to send such a little thing, I would need some assistance.
