Algae ID Please.....Bryopsis, Derbesia?

Just an update...the bryopsis has pretty well melted off the rocks and some of it on the glass/overflow is beginning to become pale.

On another note, either one of my trochus snails is a freak of nature or this isn't bryopsis because I witnessed him absolutely chowing on it tonight. And not the little baby ones either, he was chomping some of the big bad boys. It was on the glass, so I was actually able to verify that he was eating it. Unexpected to say the least.

I have seen this too with my turbo snails only after the algae has begun to die.
