What's that algae

[whatcaneyedo]

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).

curious, are these growing on your frags? I know I have that problem, and looked up green hair algae, I'm sure there are so many different kinds.


I tried the treatment of diluted hydrogen peroxide (zoa frags) and it seemed to kill a lot of it, then I let my yellow tang peck it clean.

mainly on my rockwork, found out from albert that strawberry top snails will mow it down quite well
