Hey Sleeman,
I don't mean to freak you out, but check this out. This guy left his tank for a week and he returned to this:
http://reefcentral.com/forums/attach...&postid=685272

It came from this thread
http://reefcentral.com/forums/showth...light=dictyota
The top link is obviously an exterme example but. I thought worth a look.
My outbreak was nowhere near that bad, but it didn't take long before it became very clear that I had to get it out of my tank. I additionally found out that there are over 140 Dictyota sp. names, accounting for the variation in colour and density. They all share the flat "Y" branching growth as well as the potential for very rapid growth, and the difficulty of control. After alot of hesitation, I have made the decision to up grade my system, but of all the reasons that I considered not to go big, ie. cost, time, space etc, for me, dictyota was the number one reason not to. I just didn't want to fight that battle again.
