Is this green hair algae

[Bee0877]

Is this green hair algae? Only growing in this one spot and kind of looks like a bush.i actually like the way it looks and am thinking about just leaving it. Kind of new to this only had a saltwater tank for about 10 months.

It looks like it may be bryopsis. Get rid of it before it spreads!!

+1 on the bryopsis. Don't try to manually remove it, it will just spread.

Fluconazole works wonders for it.

Do I do anything special with that medicine? Also does it affect corals?

 

[declanisadog]

Nope. Just follow the directions. Is super easy, and super effective. reef flux is the brand name from BRS, and that’s the cheapest I’ve seen.
