[Fredrxn]

I would pop the blastos off their plugs and set them on something else.

Then take the frag rock out and soak it in some H2O2 mix or just bleach the thing.

That said, it is somewhat unlikely that it’s the only patch in the tank. Had to come from somewhere after all…

Like beauB said, remove frags and dip the rock in hydrogen peroxide for a half hour or so or bleach it.

I just moved over all my frag holders from my old tank that had bryopsis..that I treated for....that tank is no longer up...tank in the picture has only been up for a month

peroxide will not stop it. Remove and scrape off completely. With Bryopsis, you MUST get rid of roots or it will keep coming back

Paint it with peroxide. Tooth brush works. Let it foam. Rinse. It'll look new in a short time

Reef Flux, if you can't treat the rock externally with bleach.
