After googling images, it does look like subwassertang. Guess that's why I couldn't find it on any algae-identifying pages.
What is this stuff? I've never heard of it, nor did I introduce it...

Would you worry about this chip in my corner?
I would, except I bought the last one and have to ask a friend to take it for me since it doesn't fit in my car.
