Hi there everyone, I recently got a hair algae infested piece of some clove polyps, I let it sit for two days in QT to see how it fared and also ship some hydrogen peroxide to myself and after a pretty long dip/scrub which did a pretty good number on all the algae (Fingers crossed the coral doesn't melt away) I have woken up to some neon orange/transparent looking tendrils coming from the carpet base. Though I could get lost in the google hole of what it May be, I was wondering if anyone knew what it was first.

Blues on.

Under Whites (back 2 or 3 are more transparent and less visible, still fluoresces on what appears to be the main bulb.) Also it moves, sometimes an occasional sway/twitch.
 
It looks like red bubble algae that has bleached after a peroxide dip. I forget the scientific name unfortunately.
