It looks like bryopsis to me however I do not know how to combat it since I have never had to combat this algae (If I have then my Foxface must’ve eaten it since I know that like 10% of foxfaces eat bryopsis, however a Foxface rabbit is not for small tanks)I've never had this algea before and need help with identifying it. I Can pull it off my rocks easily unlike the GHA that I've had before. it grows pretty fast and want to know if anything eats it, currently my snails don't touch it
It's stringy but not Feathery like bryopsis usually is but I could be wrongIt looks like bryopsis to me however I do not know how to combat it since I have never had to combat this algae (If I have then my Foxface must’ve eaten it since I know that like 10% of foxfaces eat bryopsis, however a Foxface rabbit is not for small tanks)
No its not near a window and yes I use tap water but I haven't had an algea problem for a while now. Do you think an urchin would work, like a pincushion? Currently my snails don't touch itGreen Hair Algae. Bryopsis will be more fern line with what looks like grass blades.
Reduce white light intensity and pull as much as possible by hand. Afterwards, add cleaner snails such as :
Chiton
Turbo grazers
nassarius
fighting conch
tiger cowrie
Is tank at or near a window?
Are you using RODI water or tap water from the faucet ?
A Foxface and/or Zebrasoma tang will eat it however they need tanks of Atleast 5’ in length (diagonally or not)No its not near a window and yes I use tap water but I haven't had an algea problem for a while now. Do you think an urchin would work, like a pincushion? Currently my snails don't touch it
