My guess is GSP but I've seen a Green encrusting Gorg that looks like that too. If you disturb it is there a Purple mat or is there just a bunch of runners.

It is a solid purple mat (encrusting) It came on the rock and some on the rock in front of the Goniopora in the 3rd pic. I placed the small rocks on the right side of it hoping to get it to encrust them as well for frags. I thought the stuff all died off during the drive from Miami (where I bought it) but there are a few coming back.

Funny. Yes it is as fuzzy as it looks. Seems to extend more at night and can be3/8" long when the lights first come on. It is usually 1/4" or so during the day and looks like a wheat field in a breeze with the water currents.
