I'm no expert but it kinda looks like bryopsis?

Agreed, I believe that could be Bryopsis. It kind of resembles regular hair algae, but it's "frillier", to use the scientific vernacular

HOW IMPORTANT ARE FISH TO MAKING A REEF TANK FEEL COMPLETE?

Essential! A reef needs fish movement and personality

Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose

I’ve kept a fishless reef (details in the comments)

Well...it's complicated... (answer in the comments)
