Mushroom rock in the sump has macro algae growing on it. What kind of algae is it... I have my opinion but I am seeking out some professional help to make sure.

Good guy. Keep it.
Or
Kill it. Kill it with fire.

Looks like a freshwater plant - Hornwort.

Maybe Rhipocephalus phoenix?

Sorry, I'm not a professional though.
 
I see Derbesia which is similar to bryopsis and an algae you dont want as , once it takes root, will continue to grow then spread
