What eats this algae?
What eats this algae. It starts with straight stalks and begins to "feather" at the end. It is becoming a pain in my ***.
Sea Hare, Lettuce Nudi, Tomini tang??? |

It is not just that frag, its the only only I could get a good pic of. My tank is "new", so everything was in a holding tank for a month.

I think I have the exact same stuff, and I've been fighting it for 6 months. Running PhosBan, bought a bicolor blenny, loads of snails and hermits... nothing. It's only on a few of my rocks right now, so tomorrow I plan on taking them out and replacing them with new rocks. It's my last effort to get rid of that crap!

Omnivores like tangs. Conch snails . urchins. This isnt bad to have if controlled. Better safe then sorry.
