Ive had this for awhile and it's the only algea in my tank. I can't get rid of it it has a tight grip on the rock . I've tried hitting it with peroxide a couple time and nothing. It doesn't grow quickly luckily.

It doesn't look like the pics of bryopsis on Google it's like straight pieces nothing off the sides like fronds
 
I'm thinking it might be Gelidium. Does anyone think Fluconazole will take care of it?

Not sure if this is the same but I'm following to see. I just cut it back every couple weeks.

Maybe gracilaria parvispora. Mine started as thick wirey looking strands growing in the rock and did eventually look like this pic before I trimmed it.

Mine started as just a few strands in the rock. Almost looks like it has three stages. Straighter and wire like, then some gets fuller and branches, then it gets kind of bunchy with little grape like clusters. Mine is coin g out of the rock, that last pic was just off a website.
