Beautiful specimen, just not sure of what it is...
 
Is it soft or calcified? Did it grow in your system or did you purchase it like that?

It’s soft, I bought the mushroom rock just because I really like the macro algae, so probably from Vietnam. I tough it could be going asexual but it’s been like this for 2 months now. Pic is under a orange filter.
 
Hmmm. It is nice looking but have no idea what it could be.

I’ve been looking for a name for a wile now, probably best to just do one up [emoji23]
 
Looks like plating coraline algae to me but that's usually flaky, somewhat hard. Interesting.

I can assure you that that’s definitely an algae
 
Some sort of Red Ulva algae.Maybe.

The closest I could go was peyssonnelia sp. but there’s hundreds of espécies under this family pinpointing the right one would be almost impossible [emoji23]
