Do you know what kind of algae this is?? My tank is about a year old and this particular variety is starting to take over my tank. I cant seem to figure out what type it is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

A name I don't have, but it looks like the type they put in refugiums...can you get a critter that eats it? Nothing algae can survive in my tank..I have tangs, emerald crabs, a sally lightfoot crab and a red lipped blenny.

I don't know the name, but I have macroalgae that looks similar to that one. My LFS recommended a mexican turbo snail, and he's doing the trick. Mows it down like a lawn mower.
