This just starting growing in my 45g RedSea tank. Hair algae? Bryopsis? So far it's just on this frag. Should deal with it before it spreads. Thoughts? Thanks, Steve

Yes looks like GHA. Have you nitrates or phosphate numbers changed recently? I would it pull it off by hand or brush if you can.

Thanks, Nitrates 0, need to get phosphate test. Maybe an emerald crab or two would help.
