Stringy Moss? ID please.

[JonE]

Evening All

I've got this moss amongst some others in my low light, low tech Fluval Spec and just wanted to get it ID'd. Looking around at pictures it looks as if it might be Stringy moss (Leptodictyum riparium), it grows upwards and this is a bushy as it gets.

I can get some better pics tomorrow when I've got my camera out.

Cheers
