This stuff came in on a frag months ago and thought I had picked it off "enough." Well now it's all over my 90gal. Any ID or treatment suggestions welcome and appreciated!!

Looks like bryopsis.

If you lived near or in Arkansas, I'd loan you my yellow tang. He demolishes bryopsis like a champ.

I don't, but man that's a great fish to have I'm your tank! I'm pretty sure it's a mix or bryopsis and some other algae I'm unfamiliar with. It's like, feathery looking, not stringy.
