And last night I took a look at the 3rd sample I've been wanting to get to and found something that now makes me wonder if the strands above in the Vibrant bottle aren't algae based. I wasn't think it was algae based at all as they are thin to extremely thing strands.

BUT I found this (more photo's from last night to come)

Some kind of strand seen in the algae
