Hi all! I seem to be having an issue with a nuisance algae. I would like to see if there is a "natural" solution to the problem before I try to attack it with chemicals. I have a starry blenny, a blue spot sea hare, and a smorgasbord of different snails, but none of them seem to touch the stuff. I was thinking about getting a foxface but I am not sure if it will eat this algae. I think it may be some form of bryopsis? See the attached pics (sorry for the poor quality I have a bowfront).

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
