Sorry for the noob question. Found this Algae growing on my rock when I came back from a trip. Is this green hair algae? Feels darker than that and under blue light it looks a bit more dark brownish red? The video I filmed under "Feed mode" on my Hydra 32s which is more of a white light. Thanks everyone for your help!!!

From the picture, my guess would be green hair algae. Welcome to R2R :)
