I've had these things as hitchhikers since day 1. Anyone have any idea what they are? it's the bright green strings in with the Java moss...there's random small round bits at certain intervals of the plant/algae/thing....

Thank you in advance!

I thought so too, except there is no branching... they're all one linear piece...

Huh. I have this too, showed up with riccia, thought it was part of the riccia plant! I'm very currious!
