Help identifying this macro

Hey guys,

Just started up my 29G bio cube again and purchase some love rock from the LFS. Below is a pic of a piece of rock with Some sort of plant or macro. Was hoping someone could tell me what it is. Thanks in advance for the help!

Well after some research it looks like this may by bryopsis. I pulled the rock out and tossed it.
