Hi all,

I have a green star polyp rock that has some reddish/burgundy leafy growth on one end. I have looked all over the internet and it seems like it could be some strain of red seaweed. The unknown plants are fairly small at this point and appear to be burgundy translucent leafy growths. Take a look at this pic and see of you can help ID. Keep in mind that the "leaves" are smooth, flat and not round or bubbly. One near the bottom looks like bubble algae but that is actually the side of the leaf.

Thanks for your help!![/img]
