I'm having a hair algae problem right now. Stuff isn't fun. Take out the frag and scrub off all the algae with a tooth brush. That long of algae us too much for most CUC to take care of. They seem to like shorter stuff.. hope you cab get rid of it. Or dip it in peroxide for 5-10 minutes. Your polyps won't open up for a couple days but it should get rid of the algae
scrubbing this piece isn't really a viable option ...Its a Intersection of a plastic egg crate glued to a square frag tile....with about 10 polyps on It....I have been surrounding it with small rocks to get a polyp to move off so I can have one "just incase" before I try anything more than just pulling off what I can get hold of. I think there may be something on the frag leeching as there is always a mess that follows it...IE GHA and cyno... calling these guys my pigpen polyps... 8) thanks for the reply...may try peroxide after a bit of reaserch.

Caught this little bugger last night! Banished to the sump for now. Man was he bent...evil little thing. Put him in with my lawnmower and the attacks started ...watched him grab ahold of the gill flap on my lawnmower blenny and drag him almost a foot. Before the net came down
They got held up... but the good news is they got shipped sat. and should arrive via fed-ex wed. ill post pix and first impressions after there hung. 8) stoked
