If you can post that info, that would help immensely. The clean up crew is good to tackle the algae but you have to address why it keeps growing first. They will eat it once it stop producing faster than they can maintain. I fought it myself recently for a couple months. If you can post your parameters that would help us in finding a way to help you
It could be they are similar aren't they? I've been removing it but there's alot. I'll raise magnesiumAte you sure it's GHA and not briopsis? Manual removal and raising magnesium to 1500 will help too.
Frozen mysis once a dayWhat are you feeding and how frequent?
Rip some out and lay it on a paper towel and post a close-up picture. Try to lay it out like a fan.It could be they are similar aren't they? I've been removing it but there's alot. I'll raise magnesium

What size tank? You could be over feeding you tankFrozen mysis once a day
Can I see a picture in the tank also?
I'm pretty certain it's hair. Bryopsis has a "fern like" appearance.
It's up there^^Thick mass of hair algae often too hard for cleaners to consume.
Pull as much as you can by hand and then allow cleaners to finish the rest. Carribean blue leg hermits, sea hare, astrea snails, turbo grazer snails and cerith snails will work and also chiton snails.
Is this tank at or near a window?
Also are you using RODI water or tap water from the faucet ?
Are you able to provide PHOSPHATE reading ?

Phos is slightly elevated. Adding Chemipure Blue in the sump will help keep it in check.08 phos
