Been using a potent mix of coral foods nightly for my Tubastrea that needs it. While hitting that coral with my Turkey baster, been doing the whole tank for the most part with filtration off for an hour. Corals are doing really well with the feedings. Algae has been too. With the prolific hair algae growth, I think my Trochus snails are either in Camo to avoid the Copperband, or perhaps they are trying to imitate the Euphyllia as a warning, like take a bite and your gonna feel like you just had a lengthy dental procedure. Or it could be the snails are growing out some hair algae in response to the 80’s rock I like to play while working on the reef. Never a dull moment!

Not sure if you are joking about the snail camo but I would fish them out and manually remove the algae on their shells

And cut back on feeding
