Anything to eat feathery green algae

[abigdog1976]

We have an outbreak of feathery green algae in one of our tanks. We have tried sea hares, lettuce nudis, and turbos, and tangs. Any other ideas?

sounds like bryopsis, increasing magnesium with Tech-M is helpful, I don't know anything that eats it.

Or is it this? (Byropsis)

If it's byropsis, the only way I stayed ahead of it is by frequently manually harvesting and lower phosophates as much as possible. It comes back in extremely high flow areas, but otherwise has gone away.
