Hey guys a reefer here in Aus can't find the name of this algae around the zoas and its not in my books, can any one ID this tiny sort of fan style of algae?
Thanks for this.

Hi ferret, I am not sure mate, I have that one in my books but it seems a to large a species maybe? Its a tough one for sure!
 
Here is another pic and it sort of looks similar in a way to how mermaids tail regrow from the main frame when the lighting angle is changed, its not it of course.

There are a few different species of macroalgae on that zoanthid cluster, including what looks like bryopsis, neomeris, and mermaid's tail. Be careful with the bryopsis!
