alright the french river down the road here in mass is full of this algae on the rocks. its bright green. looks beautiful. would it be ok to put in a tank? i figured the fish would like to munch on it and its just very pretty to look at. i just dont know anything about it! thanks. i also found another cool plant.

it should be fine. i go and take rocks like that from rivers and place them into my pleco tanks and within a day or 2, they are picked clean, then I go back and get another couple lol.

The branched gray-green alga (last pic) might be Batrachospermum. Close up, does it look like strings of tiny beads inside a clear sheath?
