Anybody know what kind of Macro Algae this is?

I believe it is a Macro Algae. Started out as the smallest thing possible and grew out to what I have now and just keeps growing. I've had it in my 29BC for six months. It doesn't seem to be causing any sort of problems and it actually looks really nice. It doesn't stick to anything just branches out and grows from original place. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Looks very similar to Red Gracellaria imo.
I used to grow some for my tang. He loved it. However, the kind I had looked a bit different.

Cool, it's a nice macroalgae either way. Is it hard or soft when you touch it? Usually gracilaria is harder and more rigid but there are several subspecies so there is some variation.

Its soft and I guess filled with liquid.
