Colony started on a reef disk and 1 more on the overflow. First impression was perhaps Bubble allargy but its more of a colony of sorts, hollow corn kernel shaped, not spreading elsewhere so far.

Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Unknown Colony?? ID Please!

You are right it is a red bubble algae. That one doesn't spread as fast as the other species and is actually sought after by some folks because it is rather decorative.
Nice, I plan on mounting it soon, and with the second colony I plan on attempting to proagate it on some disks. It Is neat looking.
cool i never heard ppl propagate bubble algae. learing somehting new everyday.
As long as its not invasive or a problem, this colony has been months to get to this size and has not spread. Biodiversity is welcome in the reef.

There are lots of decorative algae that are propagated. This particular species that Greg has is a nice addition to a planted SW display.
