Nice live rock! Where did you find that?
Looks like either Hypnea or Green GracilariaWondering if I can get an ID on some of these, particularly the first one. It's green under white and doesn't look leafy like bryopsis but just want to be sure
Hmmm, in this pic looks like macro called ChlorodesmisAnother photo of the questionable piece:
It's tough to tell if the other remaining pieces are affected, I'm leaning towards no? Might be wishful thinking.

its safe but does contain toxins to deter fish from eating it. Are they toxins that would affect the tank- NoWould you say it's safe to use, or too risky? I don't necessarily need it, but it would be nice.
Understood. Thank you, I was pretty worried there! Do you agree that the brown tubes are hydroids? I can provide more photos if you'd likeits safe but does contain toxins to deter fish from eating it. Are they toxins that would affect the tank- No

I could be wrong, but compared to the wiry structure of OP’s algae, Hypnea and Green Gracilaria have a more tubular structure, while Chlorodesmis grows in denser, finer, more vibrant tufts. Maybe we just need to wait for the algae to develop more to get a better ID.Hmmm, in this pic looks like macro called Chlorodesmis
Sorry, I am really not an expert on Cnidarian care/treatment. Superglue did not work when I tried it on Aiptasia, though.Good to know about the hydroids, I started aquascaping with some of this rock but left that piece out. It's really cool and I'd like to magnetize it, would you recommend I rasp what I can of them off and superglue over what I can? That one rock is particularly bad with whatever that stuff is, so if you think it's risky then I'm willing to leave it out to dry, despite the cool structure.
Edit: based on what I'm reading about that algae I'm going to pull it out.
Not sure which brown tubes you are referring toUnderstood. Thank you, I was pretty worried there! Do you agree that the brown tubes are hydroids? I can provide more photos if you'd like
