Move him asap, that algae can swarm your chalice for sure and it;'s called wafer algae I think
Anyone have an opinion on whether or not it is worth it to break this frag off the algae covered plug for a new one? I think it may just grow over that turf.

With the 1st one (CF), just clipped the frag at the base. The coral wasn't attached to the plug, had just overgrown the little piece of rock it was on. Glued it to an old frag plug. Voila! The 2nd one (MM), clipped off some of the frag plug with cutters and scraped the rest off with a blade. Think I'm gonna have to hit it again.

**** man I am not getting nearly that much growth. I got a solid ring and a 2nd eye fast, but no real growth.

What kind of lighting do you have on your tank ?
