Can someone help me identify this red algae? It does not look like red bubble tip algae.

It is growing on some rocks and the side of my Biocube.
How do I get rid of it? Thank you in advance for any help!

Yeah, it's definitely a red macroalgae, and it's likely harmless - but saying what kind of macroalgae for sure is tough from the pic.

My first thought would be a Laurencia species or something from the order Gigartinales, but I don't know for sure.
