Unknown Critter

[Fehorse]

This critter, maybe some form of fan or other invert, has popped up in the middle of my Daisy polyps. Can't get a lead on it. Is it a pest or just in the wrong place. Growing at a fast pace. It's the blue fan looking organism amidst the Daisies.

Looks like Bryopsis....

Yep, bryopsis, a sort of infamous algae. If it's confined to the frag and daisy/clove polyps tolerate it, probably the easiest treatment would be pulling the frag and doing a hydrogen peroxide dip.

If you're doing hydrogen peroxide dips I suggest you do them every few days as the daisies can tolerate. The roots are deep inside that plug and you need to kill that.

Thanks for the quick reply. Gonna get rid of that dude. Funny that it just popped up recently. Have to look that up.
