Black beard algae? Help!

[bradyrollie4]

is this black beard algae? Also how to I eradicate this garbage? I been manually picking it out every day but every day it comes back in a new spot. I have coral so algeafix is a no go?

Black beard algae is a freshwater tank algae. What specifically in the photo are you referring to? In the photo there looks to be a couple different types of cyano and film algae. What do you have as far as clean up crew? In general those rocks to me look like healthy pre-coraline algae growth liverocks.

It’s like a blanket of thin black algae
