Algae ID/Question

[dseiler]

I have a hard green algae that looks like it is a bunch of little branches. It is attatched to the rocks very well, and the last time I tried to break some off it seemed like it spread even more than when i left it alone. What type of algae is this and what is good at eating it?

Does it looks like this? If yes, this is Halimeda.
