No. Algae is the name of living water plants, many of them individually microscopic. Some are free-floating, while others attach themselves to solid objects, including rocks and ships. The most familiar forms of algae are the greenish slime that forms inside aquarium tanks, or on the walls of Swimming Pools.

The largest species of algae are kelp and other seaweeds.
