I bought some Red Gracilaria from Reef Cleaners and got it in on March 19. This is what it looks like now. It is turning bright orange and some green. Pieces of it are falling off too. Do yall have any idea whats going on?? It seems the only algae i can grow is GHA :/

My experience has been that the Red Macro's tend to take longer to acclimate than Green Macro's. Also, they like less light (at least in my tanks). You might try moving it into a slightly shaded area of the tank for a few weeks and see if it recovers.
