Hi everyone. new reefer here.
Tank is just finishing it's cycle. I'm seeing this algae develop on my glasses after a copepod bloom . Anyone know what kind of algae it is and what I should do to get rid of it? Thanks so much

It looks a bit like bryopsis to me. If you look closer, the main stalk should be wider then the branching stalks. It's a bit hard with the photo, but if you search for photos of bryopsis, you'll be able to tell whether that was right or not pretty easily.
