Hello all!

If someone can help identify what is this, looks like some algae?

It grows on my zoa frag, on several ocasion i tried peroxide and iodine dip, after cleaning, zoas are ok some time, but really dont grow or expand, then this braches appears again....

This is only frag afected, i cleaned and dipped it again today, but if someone can identify what is this, and how to ged rid of it?

Thanx in advance!

Looks like green wiry algae. Typically grows on frags. Manually remove if you can (and like you did). Using a sharp pick is usually best way to get it off rocks if accessible.
Turbo or urchins will eat it as well.
