Macro ID?

[Waleedwale1]

Was at plum beach today and picked up some macro algae. I got some sea lettuce, red garcellia, and this weird algae was floating in the bunch.
It is very soft and thinly branched and has what looks like mini feathers branching off. I couldn't get perfect pics but it is Fire red in appearance. Probably the nicest macro I've seen.

Looks like bryopsis algae

Picture is not clear, so, here are several red fuzzy algae you can Google images for a possible match:

Dasya baillouviana
Plumaria plumosa
Polysiphonia stricta
Ptilota serrata
Rhodomela confervoides
Spyridia filamentosa

It's a tie between Rhodomela confervoides and Polysiphonia stricta. I'm leaning towards Rhodomela confervoides though.
