Agreed. You can also treat with fluconazole but study up on it firstIts bryopsis which is one of the hardest species of algae to remove and must be removed at the roots or it will come back over and over. To remove, start by pulling as much as you can by hand. Once removed, use a dental pick or small crochet needle and pull the roots off the rock. Reduce white light intensity for a few days and add larger astrea and turbo grazer snails as well as chitons and blue leg carribean hermits
