Its around a year and half old and its a redsea max e 170while we are try to ID this, I don't see any coral and your join date is within the past year, so I am tagging @brandon429 to check in to see if a rip clean may be an appropriate option.
How old is your tank and what size?
Working on an answer for u now sir.Under White Light
I'm willing to do anything at this pointIn the meantime.. are you interested in getting down to the bare bones of potentially a root cause or reason it has taken over your rock? Maybe we can find a long term fix catered for your system... We are here to help
While we wait for a solid i.d... wanna go over your system, flow, nutrient levels (no3 and po4) wc schedule? Dosing? Lighting? White light %? CleanUp crew? Skimmer runnin? Refugium?I'm willing to do anything at this point

Just touching on some typical offenders in cases like yours. Maybe we can find a fix and once it's back under control ull have a long term grip on keepin it down from now on.
its 100% indicated since the sandbed will cloud massively if we reach in and drop test, and the rocks could be easily cleared externally, outside the water, sitting on the counter, with peroxide spray and some toothbrushing to clear this initial growth plugging up all the pores in the rock. its simply unideal to use any means of killing that rock algae, and letting it rot internally to compile with the current waste loading, we need mass export here- a reef storm.

yesdo you use RODI water?
So first remove sand and then move on to the rockI once had a poster use will to clear their whole tank in one pass, we linked that as first read in our thread to reward resolve.
three mos later since the first pass didnt fully remove their work for the life of the reef, they let it forest back up. had to remove link, it was one off resolve. we're full on
we work until we dont have to work, but we dont let lack of preventative steps keep the plants in the dominant position.
