Algae ID

Can anyone ID this headache and provide any solution to removal or something that eats it that can be housed in my 15G Cube. Its much more "wirey" then Hair algae that ive battled before. Def something different. Thanks!

Is it easy to pull off or is it anchored pretty good. I've had some stuff growing that looked a lot like standard GHA but it was much more "Wirey" and was anchored pretty good. From 3 ft away I took it to be GHA but up close it was something different. You could also feel it more (?) when pulling it off. Not sure if that makes sense but when I pinched the stuff, it was much more firm if that makes sense?

Its anchored to the point you'll pick up the rock with it.
