It's not halymenia (branching leaves, ragged looking but not sawtooth leaf edges), but I don't have an ID for you. It seems AlgaeBase can probably confirm it when you have one, but they don't really have a browse option - a search of "red" as the common name turns up something closeish: https://www.algaebase.org/search/commonnames/detail/?cname_id=2661
If you knew where it was collected, that may actually work to help more localized ID resources.

Awesome! Looks like a not-so-common red algae. Will see if it grows!
