My tank has been almost a month with only one fish at this point, and I've got some pretty amazing life in my tank without all of the fish. I have a ton of algae growth, much of the normal hair algae. However, I have two other macro algaes. One of them I identified as Ulva sp., the lettuce type of algae. The other one I can't seem to find, and unfortunately, I can't get a good photograph of it as its growing on the back of the tank. It's bright green, and looks like a segmented worm. It looks a little like Cymopolia, only the segments aren't as wide, and they don't have the characteristic tufts at the end of the stalks. The stalk does look (and feel) like it's calcerous.

Any ideas what this is? And should I rip it out or leave it in?
