Bryopsis

[chucko]

Does this look like bryopsis? My tank has only been running a few weeks. I did add a few pieces of live rock from a LFS. I scrubbed the rock, but obviously not good enough if it is bryopsis. I thought it was diatoms at first, as part of new tank so I left it alone. Its in quite a few different areas now. I went ahead and ordered a gallon of Tech-M since it does look like bryopsis to me.

I believe it is. Kind of hard to tell from teh pics...

From the pics...looks like GHA to me.

Yea, Im not too sure either. It does have a feather like appearance, which sounds like bryopsis, but its also very thin. Definitely doesn't hold its shape out of water.

Any other opinions before I start adding Tech-m? I added a couple of emerald crabs who cleaned off the two rocks over night that definitely had normal gha. Guess I will see if they move on to this other algae.
