Looks like a variation of ulva. Anything enjoy snacking on this algea?

I havent seen anything yet, but i only have inverts no herbivore fish. I was thinking either ulva or caulerpa sp. perhaps i can pick up a juvenile yellow tang. QT, place in DT and sell for a small profit locally while still small?

Check out this guide - you might be able to narrow it down with some google scholaring.

+1 on the ulva. As for what variation I do not know. Likes light and nutrients. Most times it covers the surface in a mat like fashion.
