Hard to tell from the pic. Are the "leaves" flat? Or is it more cylindrical? Could be caulerpa.

Do the seahorses nibble at it or just 'cling' to it?
And does it come in various colors- or just green?

they would most likely cling to it since seahorses are carnivorous.

Will codium hurt anything in your tank? Does it grow really fast? Does anything eat it? I am thinking about buying a little for my fug and display tanks.
