We need a trade name for Heterosiphona gibbesii, seen here:
ReefCleaners.org | Clean Up Crews and Macro Algae - Heterosiphona gibbesii* (http://reefcleaners.org/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=113&category_id=6&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=34)

Winner gets a $10 gift certificate to the store and credit for the name. The common names we have come up for some of the species we sell are likely to stick as there is no other reason for this algae to have a common name, and we are the only place to get it. Most of our others ones stick, so start throwing out some names people!
