Algae Identification

[Pinkheine]

Have been surfing but cannot seem to find a good link for algae identification.

Being as I am not good with a camera at all, and descriptions of "it looks like this" don't quiet cut it... there are two different types of algae in my tank that I'd like to identify.

And just for the hell of it... descriptions are:

#1 is leafy and bright green. Only a few pieces have popped up in completely different places in the tank.

#2 is Greenish/brown in color and a stalk like group on one rock only, hasn't spread, almost if you would take an anemone and make it stand up stiff and color it greenish brown.

LOL okay so that's them-- felt like I just went to the body shop and said the car goes "putt putt clank boom".

Any help is appreciated as always TIA!

#1 is sea lettuce - will be a gonner once a tang is in there.

I think the 'putt putt clank boom' is a birdie on a par 5 with a car backfiring in the parking lot. :banghead:
