Hi all. I have a red leaf algae that has been growing for two months and spreading. Thought it was initially a coralline algae as the tank has been doing great with growth of my corals. Have a 120 gallon tank. Any thoughts at first glance of what it may be...
Thanks so much.

Looks like red macro algae, it is the better of most others but you might want to remove it because it can choke out lighting from your corals...
