ID for help removing if possible

[Reefnjunkie]

Curious to see if anybody recognizes this type of Alage if so what it’s called or more important what can be used to remove it.

It’s taken over the vast majority of my rock work which if I can’t get rid of it will more than likely make me tear everything out and start over

Gonna give chemi clean a shoot as it seems like a form of cyno but would like to hear from others

This stuff isn’t new, just to me it is

Looks like cyno not good at all.

Reading that makes it sounds like cyno should be something people should fear.

I won’t ask you you to expound on the “not good at all”

I may seem like a noob

But that doesn’t look like cyano

It looks like red coralline algae

If it’s that. I am going to be doing my first dry rock tanks here soon. I’ll buy some scrapings from you if it’s coralline.

I second the opinion that it does not look like cyano. If it is cyano then you should be able to blow it or siphon it off the rocks. I looks like coralline or a form of red algae that won't hurt anything
