Hi. I have this little area that is growing what I think looks like Bryopsis. This is the only bit I see. It is only about 1-2cm across. Pretty tiny bit. Manual removal ok at this point or am I doomed. TIA!

I used Reef Flux on eBay, super easy and super effective. Knocked out the few little patches I had in a few days...just in case you go the fluconazole route. ;)
 
Could it be feather or palm caulerpa? If it's caulerpa, then manual removal. If it's bryopsis, then check your magnesium. I only get it when mine drop below 1300 ppm for a while.
 
My mag is closer to 1400 than 1300 but it really did start out looking more like feathers than Bryopsis. Let me look up that feather and palm calurpa and see if it resembled that at all
 
It really bears a much stronger resemblance to feather calurpa than Bryopsis. I think I’m looking better. I’m gunna watch, then manual removal and watch again. Thanks for the input
