ryancw01 Member Feb 16, 2010 #3 I think no one is leaving comments because you are not really asking anything. Unless you are just asking if it is algae, then the answer is yes.

reid4 Member Feb 16, 2010 #4 oh, well i was wondering whether it was a good or bad algae? if i should keep or remove it?
spanko Active Member Feb 16, 2010 #6 Looks like Bryopsis sp. to me. Take the sponge out and clean it off completely. You don't want it to spreadin your tank.

reid4 Member Feb 16, 2010 #7 okay, will do thanks spanko my yellow tang seems to be picking at it..is it bad for him?
spanko Active Member Feb 17, 2010 #8 Not bad for him, but possibly bad for your tank as pcs. floating around and landing in other parts of the tank will grow anew. And as you have noted it is fast growing so can take over the tank quickly.
