If that is your plant then bluenassarius is correct, C. rocemosa comes in several different forms depending on how much light it recieves, that one is a shallow water, high light form. When it gets less light the form looks more like clusters of grapes, which is where it gets the common name grape caulerpa.

thanks guys.
That is very interesting. I am really surprised it ended up being caulerpa...i live in CA and I think its illegal to sell caulerpa in CA.
Is this a type that i need to be concerned will take over my tank? I added it for nitrate removal and I think its attractive in the display tank.
