So.......Inever seen this happen before.....maybe someone else has?

I'm very curious as to why it's curling.

Wow, that's interesting. I've only seen Riccia do that when I had it in a bowl of water with a hot light right above it. Is the Riccia near the surface and close to the lights?
 
Ya Travis..........it's at the surface under a 65w CF.
It's been there for a few months and it's the first time I see this happen.
 
My first thought would be a deficiency (doesn't lack of calcium make tips curl?) but knowing your tanks and how slow Riccia grows I'm stumped.
