I have a nice green turf algae tank with some corals in it. I want to get rid of the turf algae and have tried a few different approaches. I don't want to remove all my rocks to spray H202 on it and scrub it. Would a Rabbitfish eat it?

How big is your tank. Rabbitfish/Foxface grow pretty fast. As far as eating turf algae it can be hit or miss. Both of mine devour algae - mainly bubble algae when it appears.

Pin cushion and long spine seaurchins will eat that too
 
There is so much of it all over my tank. This problem went from a 2 to a 10 very quickly. I'm dosing mb7 and vibrant. I've tried all sorts of cuc including urchins. I'm not sure this is going to end well the way the algae is taking over and I'm loosing corals.
