Hey, I know they aren’t the best pics but wondering if this is bryopsis. Just removed a rock that def had a quarter sized growth on it so wondering if this is it too. Hard to tell for me. One other frag has something similar.

Don't wanna be the boy crying wolf but yeah. Hear me scream. You do have some choices but I would decide soon.
a) Remove/discard all of it. ALL of it.
b) Nuke it with fluconazole (if you don't have acros, nobody should mind.)

Bryopsis is a nightmare. Take action.
Good luck. We are all counting on you.

Alright, I appreciate it. Yeah I threw out the other zoa frag. I’m just over trying to save the money and dealing with the disaster in the tank. I started this in nov and I think I’ve dealt w 90% of the bad **** that can happen. Wild.

Sorry you had to give up the Rasta. This hobby is a real test of patience for sure.
