Flucnazole is a treatment for algae outbreaks. I'm pretty sure it won't hurt the affect the fish .

Fluconazole will treat bryopsis. Looks like what you have could be bryopsis but we would need a clear close up to be sure.

The tank looks fairly new. Algae. Blooms will comeand go as the tank matures, this is normal.

Agree that it looks like bryopsis.
An alternative approach would be to buy a bunch of elysia sea slugs and let them go to work. They love bryopsis.

I think hes asking if the lion fish will eat the snails. No it wont...especially something as big as a mexican turbo snail. Things can be the size of a golfball.

Just adding a Reef Flux / Fluconazole success story. I caught it early and that stuff turned it all white in a couple days. Haven't seen a trace of it since.

Edit: I also agree with Bryopsis as it looks very similar to what I had.
