There is this Macroalgae growing on my trochus snail and I was wondering if someone could ID it for me? The snail came from a tank filled with Dragons Breath so it might be that but it doesnt look like it so I’m not sure. It’s the short red algae growing on the sides, kind of looks like spikes. It’s very small and looks like a fuzz from afar, I have more trochus snails and I’m pretty sure this isn’t a pattern on the shell. Thanks.

May be red hair algae or tube worms. Need better angle to see
