Try looking up Asparagopsis sp. I believe your red cotton alga is the sporophyte of this species. A good link was posted above. Before purchasing an army of grazers you may want to try to test and reduce the nutrients in your aquarium. Do you have a good skimmer? Also, why are you removing the macroalgae from your 'fuge? You will be taking the competitor algae away so the Asparagopsis will have more nutrients available to it. I would encourage you to promote growth of algae in your 'fuge. If you get grazers specific to asparagopsis then once they eat it all and convert it to their waste, some other sort of alga which they don't eat may be selected for.
