Hello everyone I hope you can help me.
I have a problem with a white hair algea problem, it looks like hair and is a pale grey/white colour and grows like crazy.

If anybody can I D this I'd be so very great full .
My parameters are all in good range, corals growing well but this just makes the rock look bad, it is also on glass in places.

Thanks in advance
I'm pulling my hair out now lol.

It could also be bacteria. I have seen that in new tanks but it looks a little different. Still could be though. The stuff in your tank seems a little more uniform as far as growth goes if it is covering all of the rocks. Is it hard to get off by rubbing your hand or a toothbrush on it? In a 20g I had a while ago, a few weeks after the cycle I had some but It was scattered around the tank, not covering all of the rocks. Maybe someone else will chime in. But like I said, you may not get much feedback here since this is the fish disease section.
