I was thinking cladophoropsis but not sure

It's out of control in my nano

Tech m didn't do anything to it

If I didn't know any better I'd almost think it's Chaeto

Not chaeto

I wish it was chaeto
Found something that eats it tho

I think its Bryopsis P. A very hard algae to get rid of unless its manual removal there are other means of removal but harmful for a reef tank.
I think high Magnesium does the trick to.

Are you in need of chaeto Tyler?

Not bryopsis. It IS, however, the devil.

No...

It sort of looks like a species of Caulerpa to me.

maybe some form of turf alge? It looks like something I have growing on the back of my tank (on the glass).
