Hi all, started to get this type of algae sprouting up all over the place. Hard to get a shot of it in the tank. Unsure if bryopsis or not. I was hitting it with h202. It went away but has come back with a vengence.
Po4 near 0 ppb
No3 0 - .05 on test kit but that could be due to fuge. (Icp showed 16 a month back, upped lighting time on fuge and turned skimmer on since then)

Hard to tell from the pics. Easier if in water. It might be "turf" algae. Check ur nutrient levels, esp Nitrate/Phosphate.
 
Thanks for reply. Here are a couple pics from frag tank and display. Nutrients are low from what my test kits say. Do you know if flucozole kills turf algae also

No idea about chemical tx. I try to avoid chemical treatment in my DT, for the most part. Scarlett hermits will eat it but my snails ignore it.
