Algae help

Anyone have any idea what this is? It has started taking over the algae turf scrubber. And it grows out of pores of the rocks and makes it difficult to get.

Bryopsis?

Nope. Bryopsis is fuzzy and feathered.
Thats a tough one. All my alge bookmarks are coming up with zero.

Clearly you want to get rid of that if it's that invasive.

It's definitely interesting. It's brittle and breaks relatively easily. Almost like it's filled with water like bubble algae. Feels like a crisp break if you do break it. It seems to be out competing the turf algae for space on the scrubber.
