Yes, another mac algae id

I've been through the forums but couldn't find an id. It is definitely a caluerpa type, but I've never seen it before.

This stuff looks like little lily pads, actually kind of nice looking.

Caulerpa racemosa, variant "peltata'

isnt it from Hawaii?

 

[RicksReefs]

it may be in hawaii too (caulerpas do get around),
but i've collected racemosa here in fla. with
both the grape & anchor 'leaves' on the same
parent colony.

This would have been from Fiji, where the LR was from.

Thanks, that's definitely it.
