PeterU Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Is this coralline algae? I have 3 tiny patches where all the rest is red and purple. Quote Link to comment
seabass Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 IDK. Is it flexible? If so, it might be macroalgae. Quote Link to comment

The 3 pieces are each the size or smaller than a dime and don't seem to be growing bigger than that. Quote Link to comment
