    I'm really glad I finally got rid of mine... this stuff is a pain in the but to get rid of of in your tank. Maybe a Sea Hare... I know they tend to eat alot of different types of algae if I remeber correctly, not sure if the eat bryopsis though.

    Denise,

    Read some of the previous posts. As usual Larry quoted chapter and verse. He's fighting a pretty nasty outbreak himself but he has it on the run.

    I cut back the lights some, It's starting to turn brown and break away.

    Larry had to turn his lights completely off and do a lot of manual cleaning to get a handle on it. Of course he's losing a lot of corals in the process. He had already lost a lot because of bryopsis overgrowing it. I think we are going to have to declare Larry's tank an official MAAST charity to get it repopulated with frags after he gets it going again. He's a done a lot for a bunch of us both in livestock and information and I think its time for a pay back.
