Id needed - never seen anything like this

[scruggyj]

I don't know how to best describe this other than a green worm cacoon. I am not really sure what it is or where it came from. I have been watching it for a while and just decided to ask if anyone knows what it is.

I have not touched it but it look hard and does not move.

Any ideas?

Perhaps Neomeris annulata, if not than probably Codium.

Not Codium, but it is for sure a macro algae. Very cool - haven't seen it often.

Actually, pic isn't that great...is he growing off a rock or stuck to the glass?

If stuck to the glass, I have no idea what he is.

It is on the rock behind the torch. Hard to get a good pick because it is behind the torch and I am having to shoot it at an angle. Can't get a strait on pic.
