Over the last few months, this stuff really took off. I’ve been cutting back on feeding, 40 gallon cube and conduct 10 gallon water changes ever 7-10 days ALWAYS.
Have a 7 stage RODI filtration that is reading 0 TDS, using fritz salt (changing to aqua Forrest once this last box is gone)
How can I get rid of this crap?
And can anyone positively ID, hair algae, turf, and bryopsis?
Thanks

Chaeto?
I’ve never put chaeto in here before, would it just grow on its own like that?
 
I would scrub it off the rocks with a new toothbrush and siphon it out. Then add two pincushion urchins and have about 40 astrea snails total.
