I've been around for a while, but have never posted before. I have been in the hobby for many years, during which time my interest has waxed and waned. Despite that, my reef setup (65 gal. with 15 gal. sump), containing mainly softies, has survived the last 10 or so years. It occurred to me...

Thanks all. I guess that it's your basic Rhodophyta tropical red algae species. I did find some photos online that were pretty close to the one in my tank. I've had everything from sargassum to halimeda (not to mention several species of caulerpa) but never anything as beautiful as this.
