Goni Help - Algae

Howdy! I have these two Gonioporas and that have some algae growth happening around them. How do I remove it without being to invasive?

I would try dipping in hydrogen peroxide . Thats worked for my corals.

If your tank is big enough then algae eating fish are probably the best way without getting invasive.

Gently swirl Goni underwater or tap base on a rock so it retracts fully

Remove from water. Keep Goni upright

Using a syringe or paintbrush, saturate the algae around the base with hydrogen peroxide. Saturate it good. Keep the
Goni upright so any drips fall to the table or in the sink. Hydrogen peroxide won’t kill the Goni flesh but it will annoy it.

After the base algae is saturated in hydrogen peroxide simple let it sit for about 3 minutes. Then return Goni to the tank. You should notice micro bubbles forming from the algae pretty soon. That means it worked.

After 24 hours, repeat process on any remaining algae

I have a juvenile naso. I will be getting a scopus tang as well.
