Wow some beautiful stuff Mason.
The first ones are definitely Halymenia or Dictyota. Not sure about the others, but would love to know. This link from the 3reef links page should help ya. | |

What strain of Halymenia do you think it is? I have a huge bush of this and I'm pretty sure that this is Halymenia.
Is pic one or two a different stain of Halymenia?
Still no clue on the third. | |

O.K. check this out I'm still learning how to do it well but If you put a magnifying glass in front of your camera you can get better shots I actually found out about this on here but it took me a while to get a magnifying glass but here is a closer shot of # 3 "the weird one " it's a little blurry but I'm sure I'll get better at taking shots like this! | |

yep, the magnifying glass trick works pretty well
that is weird, almost looks like a hairy mushroom, lol, it might take me some time to figure this one out, Boomer is really good at id'ing algae, far better than me (if it is algae)
i will get back to you on this
