So which of your fish would eat that? Looks to be hair and maybe bryopsis?

ya ya......angels are big algae eaters......they constantly pick......unfortunately, at more than algae sometimes....


it does kinda look like hair algae, but it is some kind of calerpra, similar to "feather"........my yellow tang and chevron pick at it ....there is some growing in the big tank, in the eggcrate overflow strainer, where it is hard for the tangs to reach......i see them up there from time to time trying to get to it......


more act shots
